How the hell do you post every week?

That's the question I get more than any other. People assume the answer is discipline, or time management, or some freakish typing speed. It's none of those things.

The answer is a catchall folder in Apple Notes called the Brain Bucket. Every idea, quote, and observation goes in. Most of them just sit there. But every once in a while, one new note lands in just the right spot and pushes a few others over the edge—like a coin pusher at the arcade.

Brain Bucket is the first in a series on how I write, featuring Angus Young's jacket pockets, a Pixar movie, Tetris, and the connection between Plato and Wayne's World.
