Last month I took a break so as to let the creative juices come back, but the last two weeks have been very busy at work and this week is too. By the look of things the next several months will be as well, at least through January. Fortunately the patients that rely on our product are well worth the effort and so is my compensation.
When I have a 40 hour week it’s easy to put in 5 – 10 hours working on the blog. When it’s a 45 hour week, it’s easy to put in 2 – 5 hours. When I have a 50+ hour week it’s difficult to find the time and energy to put together thought provoking posts, except on the weekend.
As far as the podcast goes, we’re working on some stuff to make it easier for me to keep up with editing. Currently each episode averages 3 – 4 hours of recording/chatting and 3 – 6 hours of editing.
In short, don’t be surprised by late episodes, shorter episodes, infrequent blog posts, or more rants (sometimes venting some rage helps with stress).
