Haven’t got today’s pomodoro’ in yet, but will. Today will be 31 days straight of writing.

Larry—didn’t see your earlier question as I was in a hurry to post my update and get in to work. I know I’ve written enough about a topic when I can say “but there’s no way someone will need to know X about Y”. It’s the a problem of expertise syndrome. Once you know enough about a topic to write something the length of an article, much less a book, you forget all of the little things you needed to pick up along the way.

Of course, you can go overboard. Sometimes (as Susannah will attest to) I like to get wordy just to fill in blank space. I’ll repeat the same thing different ways a few paragraphs apart. That’s too much of the wrong kind of info.
