As a follower of a number of my saves LB, you'll have noticed that I try to keep things "fresh" from one to the other. Still, with so many on the go it's all about having a robust process that can be applied to all. You can see the basic premise as the bedrock across the board with individual flourishes differentiating each.
As much as I hate the thing, Microsoft Word is my go-to WP. I use a fantastic program called SnagIt for all the graphics and Excel for my spreadsheet work.
For this timeline, given it only gets the single update each season, I just write the narrative directly into Word with some notes along the way. Then, after I polish it, I screenshot the finished product, add the graphics and compile it all in SnagIt, then do the post as an IMGUR image.
It's been trial and error over many years with numerous false starts and constant tinkering but I've pretty much got it down pat now, I think.
