One nice thing about having multiple blogs on @write_as is that I can start writing a post for this microblog, and if it turns into something more that I want to share on my main blog, I can just switch the blog it's going to publish to.

Made more progress on my weekend project, a tool for generating images like this for social media.

Right now, it's an open source command-line tool written in Go, with a few configurable options. You can find the AGPL-licensed code on GitHub and start using it now!

@paul Just added support for configuring the size this morning!

@paul Thanks! Yep, that's on my list -- I think it'd be worth supporting other social media formats. Any particular uses you had in mind for this?

@mrb @jordisalvia Awesome! Mentioned elsewhere, but I plan on adding a web interface / API next.

If you have any thoughts on what would help out your use case, I'm all ears!

Working on a small tool to generate an image from a bit of text, made especially for any WriteFreely-based blog.

Basically, you'll use this to highlight something you wrote along with your blog URL, so you can then share it to Pixelfed or Instagram.

Brandon's Notepad

Hello, Fediverse! My name is Brandon. I have been blogging since 2008. I write about productivity, technology, books, religion, coffee and tea, and Texas. I joined Mastodon to share my work and learn from other writers, but also to escape Twitter, which has proven to be useful for neither of these things. You can find my blog at brandonsnotepad.wordpress.com.

Hi - just thought I'd join and see if writing.exchange could provide some inspiration and interesting conversation.

Currently I mostly blog about software / tech but I'm hoping to write a lot more this year!

TBYB

I'm TBYB; Don't want to use my real name and I'm too lazy to come up with a pseudonym.

I'll be honest here: I'm here purely for the writing and occasionally talking about what I'm up to. I get enough noise about politics, the news, and general internet drama daily.

I'm also here to overcome my crippling fear of inadequacy when it comes down to my own writings. All advice/feedback is welcome.

I flip between short stories, long-form reviews, and occasional journal entries. Anyway,
