I’m thinking about bringing back my “museletter” format that I wrote several years ago. 1. What’s a museletter? Each week you share what you’ve been thinking about. It’s a simple roundup of some observations and notes from the past several days. There’s no pressure to synthesize or do much formatting before publishing. Ideally you’ve already done some “thinking in public” during the week and can simply reference yourself. 2. Why bring it back? I love the consistency that @firstdraftclub has given me (31 consecutive weeks of writing something in /firstdraft) but I don't feel like I'm developing my ideas as much as I'd like. FDC is merely a "minimum viable writing habit" (h/t @sonyasupposedly). I have tons of ideas that get stuck somewhere between a cast and a full post, and I want a forcing function to push them out into the world. A weekly museletter is the next level of commitment that can be a reliable habit.

like the idea. love the context and explanation. feels like for a muse letter would be hard to publish. I would struggle with the lack of connection or incompleteness. Is that a struggle for or do you like that part of it?

In general I like being a generative / divergent thinker, so it was fun to have the different ideas and not be tied to a topic. If you're worried about a coherent theme, you could just frame it as a "weekly roundup" and share the things you've casted over the week.
