I have been following up "awesome" posts with less-awesome posts for a few years now. It sometimes feels weird, but my experience is that sometimes off-the-cuff short posts are surprisingly popular, and that even when a blog post isn't popular, sometimes, a year later, somebody I really respect will tell me that they loved it. for example I worked for weeks on this post: http://jvns.ca/blog/so-you-want-to-be-a-wizard/ http://jvns.ca/blog/so-you-want-to-be-a-wizard/ and then followed it up with a few very quick thoughts on careers in http://jvns.ca/blog/2017/03/17/career-narrative/ http://jvns.ca/blog/2017/03/17/career-narrative/. My thinking is that people who read my blog can decide for themselves what to read and what to skip. My only guidelines for blogging that I follow are basically these: https://twitter.com/b0rk/status/823183090554126336 https://twitter.com/b0rk/status/823183090554126336.
