Soft evening notes

Evening is when the city exhales. The inbox has gone quiet, the plant on the sill has stopped photosynthesizing for the day, and the screen's white has mellowed to paper.

We write at 120 words per minute in our heads, but the publish clock says 200. That's okay — slowness is a feature.

A short ritual

1. Make tea. Watch the leaves unfold.
2. Open the editor. Leave the title empty for a while.
3. Paste a photo. Let it decide the tone.
4. Write the excerpt last — ten to three hundred characters, like a postcard.

Patience, puff. The softest stories are not rushed.

An evening snippet

// autosave every 10s — never lose a puff
setInterval(() => {
  localStorage.setItem("draft", editor.value);
}, 10000);

And a little JSON for our seed

{
  "slug": "soft-evening-notes",
  "status": "published",
  "reading_time": 2
}

We intersperse images like breaths. Rounded, with caption, click to lightbox. No heavy JS — the public pages carry less than 50kb. The admin stays behind a locked door at /admin, with JWT in an httpOnly cookie.

Goodnight, paper desk. See you in the morning.
