My normal blogging routine is to write my blog posts on Sunday. I may get a post or two done ahead of that, but for the week, I have things finalized on Sunday.
Except this week. (I took a lazy Sunday and read all day. It was nice.)
I am writing this on Tuesday. I am going to schedule this to post Wednesday.
If you're on Blogger, you probably already know how to do this. When you open up a new post, "Published on" is right there in the Post settings sidebar.
If it's not open, just click on the arrow. (It's usually open when you open a new post.)
"Automatic" will be selected, and the date and time will be the current date and time. As you can see above, I've clicked on "Set date and time". Then I selected the date on the calendar thingy. (If you want to go ahead months, use the little arrows next to the month and year at the top.)
Once you've selected the date, you can select the time. (You can select the time first.) Just click on the time, and a wheel with all the hour and half hour times will pop up. (You can type in a time instead.)
And that's it. Type in your post as normal, and then hit "Publish".
It'll show on your posts screen as "Scheduled" with the day it's scheduled to go live. And that's it. It's ready to go.
Now I need to go and get Thursday's post ready...

I appreciate your comments.
I respond to comments* via email, unless your profile email is not enabled. Then, I'll reply in the comment thread. Eventually. Probably.
*Exception: I do not respond to "what if?" comments, but I do read them all. Those questions are open to your interpretation, and I don't wish to limit your imagination by what I thought the question was supposed to be.
