Recently, WordPress reminded me of the importance of hitting “Save Draft” when I am working on a fresh post.
I don’t know how it works for you, but most of my blogposts are composed over a period of time. I don’t usually sit down, type, and publish something in one sitting. I’ve thought about it for days. I’ve visualized it in my head. I’ve listened to the words that I am thinking about writing. That’s why publishing a post every day is nearly impossible for me.
Hit “Save Draft.”
Otherwise, with the click of a button, or the swipe of a finger, all of your hard work gets flushed into the blogosphere dungeon of lost forever drafts.
No bueno.
There you have it: Blogging tip of the day #1.
God is good. All the time.
No matter what.
Know you are loved.
Praying for you. Praying for America.

Rainer, you’ve offered an excellent tip. I’m sort of “old school” when writing a draft of a poem or short story for a post. The original is written in my word processing document and saved there. Only when I feel that this draft is pretty much what I want, do I transfer it into WordPress. Other types of posts are easy to modify on WordPress and save with a new heading.

Thanks, Alan. I do something very similar. In this case I forgot to hit save. 😆

I use the draft folder in WordPress every day; any Bible verses or ideas are saved there with a temporary title. All this is made easy by having my trusty tablet or phone by my side when I am reading, thus, my drafts are a notebook for me.
God bless you today brother Rainer 🙏
