I wrote about how social media habits make it hard to write a good opening and how a BBC4 radio program helped me overcome the urge to waffle.
Neither waffle nor a cold open: In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg is my model for topic introductions

Hi. I'm terrified.
I've been trying to make my own space on the web for years. And I've been stuck. Badly.
But today is my birthday. And I refuse to let another year pass without putting something—anything—out there.
So here it is in all its messy glory. My first post on my barely-there #website: https://fromemily.com/hi-im-terrified/
It's not great. But it's okay...enough.
And I hope it means something to someone.

PSA for people with #Wordpress blogs: do you know that you can turn off comments on old posts?
In the last few months I have noticed a significant uptick in spammy comments on my Wordpress blogs (I have 4).
Well there is a way to remedy all that: you can simply turn off comments on old blog posts by going to:
Settings -> Discussion -> and checking "Automatically close comments on old posts"
(You can even determine the "oldness" of posts, for example, older than 7 days, 14 days... anything you'd like)
Enabling this made all the difference for me. I could not recommend it more.
End of my PSA 🤗
Have a great day everyone!

A blog post about common parts of my #Emacs configuration 
There is a first post in the series of posts about my Emacs configuration. I tried to describe all at once but @lfa stopped me at the right point!
