Dear Self:

"Postcede" is not a word although it should be. STOP USING IT.

(But really: we have "antecede" and "precede": Why don't we have a corresponding word meaning "come after"?)

wouldn't the correct word for 'postcede' be procede?

I'm not sure that *procede is any more standard English than *postcede, but it's very elegant!
