WTF is Stock & Flow: On creating a daily blogging practice

Man in library with white, wave-like shelves.

So I kinda decided, arbitrarily, to blog everyday. I’m in a new life season — see last post — which means I’ve been more or less trying on new hats and seeing what fits; daily blogging feels like a worthy exercise to blow away some mental cobwebs.
