Ape in Progress

This is inspired by My morning writing practice, except less prolific.

My current folder structure looks like this:

a parent folder, pkm, with 5 subfolders - daily, ever-nearly-ready, inbox, templates, web-archives

I use the daily folder for bullet point journal entries for the day and an initial “landing” spot for links, notes, etc.:

Image of my daily folder, with a few notes inside. They’re titled “daily note”, and then the date in YYYY-MM-DD format.

I initially planned to create a sub-folder to daily to archive notes over a week old, but found out Obsidian had a keyboard shortcut to move through daily notes and a flatter structure leaves less to think about.

Inbox is where any new writing begins. Sometimes it’s a rough draft, other times it’s just an empty file to serve as a writing prompt.

When I’m happy that I want to publish a page, I’ll put it in ever-nearly-ready. The page could be very sparse, but that’s okay - perfect is the enemy of done.

Then, ever so occasionally, I publish my thoughts.
