Given my proclivity for tinkering with publishing tools, it should come as no surprise that I now have four active blogs and a wiki.
- baty.net - The “main blog”. Hugo. (You’re soaking in it.)
- daily.baty.net - Daily notes and short posts. Statically published using Tinderbox.
- baty.blog - Possible replacement for baty.net. Pure Blog is so simple! (PHP with plain-text content files)
- copingmechanism.com - New. Not sure what it’s for. I can’t seem to let go of Ghost with its ActivityPub stuff and ease of posting.
- Rudimentary Lathe - The Wiki. I love TiddlyWiki and it’s a great place to dump stuff and deal with it later. I’ve started over from scratch.
I understand that this is probably unsustainable, but I can’t seem to help myself. It’s chaos, especially for readers, but it’s a fun chaos!
It’ll be fine, once I’m able to admit to myself that I’m not so much a writer as I am a blog collector. I post to whichever one I feel like posting to at the moment. I know it makes things difficult to follow. I may feel differently about all this tomorrow.
Like the Dread Pirate Roberts, each night I tell my blogs:
“Good night. Good work. Sleep well. I’ll most likely kill you in the morning.”
