Mini thread here answering a question about how I manage to produce so much content on my blog
Not having a full time employer helps!

It's that and practice: I've been writing online for 20+ years now, so I can knock out a small piece (a link blog entry) in 5-15 minutes and most of my longer form stuff takes 1-2 hours
