    A publishing calendar that survives a busy month

    How to plan four weeks ahead without writing four weeks of posts up front.

    • Plan commitments a month out; produce the posts a week out. A calendar full of finished drafts is a plan that cannot bend.
    • Set the cadence from your worst week, not your best. Three slots you always hit beat six you hit twice.

    • Lead with a verdict in plain language, then the evidence. Never make the reader assemble the conclusion.
