Hi, I'm Gregory Brown.
My goal is to help software developers get better at what they do, whether they've been at it for five weeks or fifty years.

Although there are plenty of ways to free up time, you still end up with a limited amount to go around, and so it just becomes a question of how you spend it.
A good next step would be to figure out how much time you can consistently spend on your writing work, and then scale your efforts down to the time you have available.
Even if you end up writing very short things that are more similar to daily posts once per week, a year will produce over 50 of those, and that'd still be a great outcome.
So if in doubt, don't stretch yourself thin, focus and think small. It will pay off in time.

My goal is before the big 50 which is in November.
Thanks for the suggestion on the book read.
I got blessed with the
pragmatic programmerfor Christmas and I have not been able to find time to start it. :(I was thinking that setting a goal of writing an article once a week is attainable.
It's just finding the time to get it out there.
I have a lot to think about.
Thanks for the great advice :)
