The pain of having too much to write about

Published by Dougal at 1:30 pm under Blogging

Arnold Zwicky over at Language Log gets to complaining about, well, things in general. Including the amount of email he gets and how long it takes to write a good post. He lets slip that

…I have a more-or-less constant queue of 250 postings in preparation, that is, partly written.

Would this be what they call slightly excessive? I have never had more than twenty unpublished posts and have long since come to the conclusion that any post that hangs around unedited and unpublished for more than a few weeks will probably never see the light of day. At least, not without a complete rewrite and probably a shift in focus and tone.

Two hundred and fifty posts!
