Content Creation Process .:. Hive Humpday Hangout Ep.26 (Wednesday, July 10, 4 PM UTC)

After the longest Special Edition #HHHLive show 2 weeks ago, I was unable to run the show last week, so we had a short break... Unfortunately, @incublus wasn't able to do his show either on Friday, so we had a week without any live streams in the Ecency Discord! Summer is coming, and it looks like we will have these breaks more often than usual... So, when we are online, don't forget to use that opportunity to join and have fun with other Hivians!!!

This week, I was thinking of doing the show on the topic that @chocolatescorpi mentioned a month or so ago... I think she mentioned that in the chat on the show, and she wrote/said something like this...

I would like to discuss with everyone the processes and structures for finding time and creating content for Hive...do people even have a structure..? Processes? Or just wing it?

Sometimes, creating content doesn't go as easily as we would like... We were talking about writer's block at the beginning of the year, but let's dive even deeper than last time into this interesting topic... Not just what happens when we stay without ideas about what to write, but more about how to prevent that from happening...

Reaching a certain level of consistency takes time, and not just time, but a lot of discipline... What works for one person, doesn't work for another, but it could work for someone else... Because of that, let's try to share our content creation process and how to get there...

For me, it is a mix of multiple things... Firstly, I do have my daily to-do list, which helps me achieve consistency... They are like small daily "mini-goals", which are reachable, but still challenging... I have 8-10 daily tasks on my list, and in my head, I have split them for a whole day... Some of them are reserved for the morning, others for the afternoon, and the rest for evening and night...

Secondly, my daily tasks aren't the same challenging, one is easier, without the need of brainstorming, while others need more time to be completed... Some people like to do the hardest tasks first and finish with easy ones, I like to do it in reverse, firstly easy, and the end, challenging the "main boss"... 😃

Regarding the creative process itself, I need to concentrate and focus on my writing/recording/streaming, which often means, an empty room, light music, and sometimes, a list of notes... Usually, I write these posts late at night, when I can have that atmosphere... Posts have a light beginning, flowing slowly into the issue/topic, researching it and trying to show multiple views, and in the end, trying to create a conclusion, leaving space for readers to comment and share their point of view...

How does your content creation process look? Do you have a specific time to do your post? Do you have notes, or create a structure before writing? I know that we shared before different ways to find inspiration and ideas for posts, but we can do it again and remind ourselves of those things... Come to the show and share your experience!

How was it in the last show? Last time we had that "marathon show" where we discussed many topics... Just like creating, and building up the post, we did the same with that last show... Talked about easy topics, and slowly getting into (harder) Hive topics... All in all, it was a lot of fun! Don't forget to check out the Recap of HHHLive post...
