When do you write your blog entries?  Is it at work during a quiet moment?  Is it when you’re stuck in traffic?  In the coffee shop?  Do you set aside some time every day to write out your thoughts on a subject?

For me, it’s all of the above, though not all at one time.

Right now I’m stuck in traffic on No. 3 Rd in Richmond.  In the last 10 minutes, I’ve managed to gain 50 metres on my trek home from the mall.  Don’t let the Google Map fool ya … there’s lots of construction going on thanks to the Canada Line extension of Translink’s SkyTrain.

It’s not often that I can write an entry in this fashion.  More often than not, I write notes throughout the day on my trusty iPaq 2210 and then convert those point-form scribbles and partially written sentences into the posts that have been seen on this site.  Quite often the entries are based on things I see in the paper, in stores, or from discussions that I’ve had during the day.

Of course, not everything gets put online, and approximately 90% of the scribbles get set aside in a “maybe later” pile.  Almost all of my entries are written and scheduled to be published at midnight (Pacific time), unless there is something that I just had to post right away.

So when do you write?  I’ve read several posts over the last few months about how popular bloggers manage their time, but never have I seen something from the rest of us.
