Think of it as sharing questions and your approach to finding an answer. That way learning anything at all is a success, even if all you learned was that you underestimated the work involved. Don't wait for it to "be presentable" share your interests and learnings. 80% is actually 100%.

I present my outline to an AI chat and ask for other ways to structure it. Ask for some fun headings and the paragraphs will flow.

Share any failed search terms or unsearchable ideas. That way people can respond with "you have to search for frobnocator".

Understand that the faster you can go from and idea to a post the happier you will be. A quick one pot pasta dinner with interesting touches. Not a multi pan demanding process that requires that 6 things go exactly right.

Think about writers that you like and what it is you like about them. I like Joe Armstrong of erlang fame. He wrote it a casual friendly style that got you curious about the system and any number of deeply technical issues
