What does my writing schedule look like? (Patreon)
Content
I’ve gotten into such a good writing and recording schedule. I wake up bit early, and do all work 2 hours before my day job starts!
Tuesday - Friday
Editing and writing. I edit this week’s episode, and write a paragraph or two on next week’s episode.
Saturday
By this point, this week’s episode is ready to go, so I record it. I play it to my partner, Lucy, after breakfast over tea.
I send the draft audio out to my friends and small number of patrons for early access and last-minute error checking (you'll tell me my mistakes!)
Sometime during today Lucy records the credits, having had time to digest the episode and come up with a mid-credits joke/quip (like Meg’s proverbs in Night Vale)
Sunday
With the audio finalised and any mistakes I missed pointed out to me, I make the video, which is the most brittle part of the process so I leave it to last. I send this out to a few friends for last-minute checks.
Monday
Publishing day! Podcast goes out and so does the youtube video, I tweet about them with a script I’m constantly refining, and I post the transcript and production notes here on patreon.
Hope that's interesting, and if you have tips for me, I’d be delighted to hear what works for you!
