On sports talk radio this morning I heard a comment about basketball that applied to marriage. Did a quick tweet about it via @64mascots. Went to YMCA for 30/30 time (30 minutes cardio/30 minutes writing). Spent 17 minutes seeing if I could flesh out the idea into a coherent analogy. Simply typed ideas, some complete sentences, some not. The point was to get ideas down.
When I got to a digestion point, a point of needing to think more on the subject, I let it rest. Switched focus to producing a blog post in 13 minutes.
With about 7 minutes left it was time to post. Did a quick cut n paste from Google Docs to Typepad. Editing post just a bit.
30 seconds left. (What? iPhone died..no music, no timer..big distraction..ok, just finish the post.
Tomorrow's 30/30 will be spent on the same project.
Have you ever used a tweet for a springboard for a longer piece?
