Ha! I like this, if I were organized I would absolutely set myself a blog schedule and do one of these a week, too.
I haven't found any draft functionality, and I'm definitely going to miss scheduling posts-- it's the only way I was able to ever be consistent-- but I think composing drafts in emails like an old-school blogger is the way to go, for me.
Oh you can post by email, though. Maybe I can schedule emails? That sounds too advanced, for me.
