Need a word for what we often call a blog but isn't really.
"Web-log" implies that it's like a log, that you're mostly talking about your life and your current thoughts; meanwhile many "blogs" are more accurately described as collections of essays.
I'm hoping to find a word for that which is shorter than "collection of essays".

Also, writing is hard. I'm so slow... 😑

@peterdrake That's an interesting one, in that it refers to the collection and the individual pieces.

But I think "column" is associated a bit too strongly with newspapers and suggests that the essays will be short and that there will regularly be a new one. And will be doing neither short nor regular, haha.

@peterdrake Honestly might go with this, haha. Not a drop-in replacement for 'blog' either of course, because of the negative connotation, but I like a bit of self-deprecating humour.
