Fudge Sunday readers have asked me about my writing process. I’ve been very transparent with these questions and I am even working with a few readers on their own newsletters and writing process. 🎗️
For Fudge Sunday, I am typically waking up on Sunday morning with no idea what I’m going to write about then getting somewhere between 500-1000 words hammered out in the afternoon or early evening. 🔥
Sometimes, I’m literally inspired by an email that arrived in the past few days. Today is one such example. 🌶️
Sometimes, I have a topic that was unknown to me that comes up during the week. And sometimes, I remember that topic. 🤞
I wrestled with two things today. I wanted to write about a deeply technical topic related to the conference I added this week. 🤨
Reflecting on Qlik Connect 2024
I'll be appending to this article throughout the week of June 3-5, 2024. 🤓 June 3 Tech Field Day with Qlik team Analyst Expo Floor Tour / Social Media Ambassadors Welcome Reception and Customer stories June 4 Keynote Day 1 with CEO Mike Capone, Qlik Vision Strategic direction Outlook Meredith Whale
Instead, I linked to my LinkedIn Article. The topic I had in mind will have to wait. 🫷
Back to the spicy…
Yesterday, I woke up and remembered an email from Thursday that caught my eye that might be the perfect inspiration for Fudge Sunday newsletter. Next, like a hyper stimulated Jack Russell Terrier, I decided to see what effort would be required to update node.js, my 11ty stack, and the starter framework from 1.x to 3.1.0… and jumped into code. 🐿️
Wait. Whut. ⁉️
Oh, you were expecting some grand galaxy brain thinking on my part? Nope. 🙂↔️
Thankfully, I remembered that I had remembered that email after the humbling reminder that I am not a good software developer, coder, directions follower, etc. 😭
As I got into the links from the email, I found myself going deeper and deeper in the rabbit hole. 🕳️
I kept having déjà vu. Was this Diaspora Part Deux? 🧐
Was this really a billionaire discussing the merits of TCP/IP? How was such a thoughtful treatise on Interwebs history, shifting societal norms, and turnkey tyranny tales eminating from someone the news painted as a real estate guy? 🤔
So, I kept clicking and found myself thinking this is a story that needs wider dissemination to my readership. Next, I crafted the deep links that I thought mattered most and tapped out the latest edition of Fudge Sunday with those deep links along the way. 🚀
Again, I’m not that deep — but my links are. I get my inspiration and I go tappy tap on the keyboard. ⌨️
