Pre-writing, saving as a draft and then publishing later

[Jennifer Hadorn]

I've made a goal to post to my blog at least every other day. I'm searching for a co-conspirator (read: collaborator) but that's another story.

Anyway, what I've decided to do is pre-write a lot of the content while I have the time now. I'm going back to school this spring and I just won't have time to sit down every day or every other day and hammer out a full entry or come up with an entire craft project on the fly.

Blogger has a nifty feature that allows you to save a post as a draft and then you can go back in, tweak a bit, spell check and edit and then publish. I'm thinking this is the way to go. I can write when I have the time and save it for later.

There isn't really much going on that is earth shattering news in the world of gardening, so I can just type to my heart's content and save it. (Of course, if anything earth shattering comes along, I would immediately run to my computer and post about it.)

If you're using this method I'd like to know if it has worked for you or if you've come up with a better method. Thanks everyone.

You can edit the time and date before you publish in compose mode if you click on "Post and Comment Options" near the bottom.

Aha! Thank you

I've never actually used blogger for a blog, so please forgive my cluelessness...blogger doesn't allow you to future date posts?
