Most writers spend three or four days on a piece, hit publish, and then close the laptop with the satisfied conviction of a person who has just sent a drunk text.
The send button was the whole experience.
Then they wonder why nothing happened.

Three questions for the last piece you published:
Where else could it live, as is, with 20 minutes of reformatting?
What's the sharpest fragment that could stand alone somewhere else?
What format does this idea want to be in that you haven't tried yet?
