Thank you for this post! Did you end up making a template? Cause if so, I'd love to use it! This is exactly what I need in my life right now... :)

Hey Abby! Thanks so much for your comment! I really appreciate you reading my article 😃 I didn’t receive any interest in a template when I originally posted this back in August so unfortunately I did not end up creating one 😞

However, I hope that the steps I outlined in the post will be helpful enough for you to create something similar. All the best!

It was actually easy to create the table following your steps. I also added the extension to Chrome, which works well for adding things to the table, but when I tell it to add things to other pages, I can't figure out where they are going! Hopefully I will find my Notion sea legs, with more practice, soon :) [Alyssa Holland](https://hashnode.com/@Code_Runnings)

[Abby Friedman](https://hashnode.com/@abbyf) I’m sure you will figure it out soon. It took me some time to get accustomed to how things work in Notion.

Feel free to reach out if have any further questions going forward!

Loved the article! Infact, I was writing an article about using notion to publish to blogs like hashnode and devto. You beat me to it. However, I have a different twist to it and will probably go ahead and publish it. I'm also a very big notion fan. 🙌

[Skay](https://hashnode.com/@skay) thanks for the comment! I am really interested in seeing how other people setup their workflows so I would definitely encourage you to publish your article on Notion. I look forward to reading it

Hi alyssa 👋

Nice article, I’m a big notion advocate and use it mainly to streamline my blogs writing. So awesome to see other people working its magic

I have a Kanban Board that I use to store my blog ideas so I'd be curious to see how you're leveraging Notion to organize yours. Notion is so customizable I've probably just scratched the surface. It's cool to hear that you're using it as well 😁

[Alyssa Holland](https://hashnode.com/@Code_Runnings) Hey Alyssa, I'm using a table layout to store every day, and make some feature articles to keep a backlog.

I'm keeping track of things like re-check, links, titles, not actually writing the articles in Notion for now, just used to iaWriter.
