"Addend" as a verb: Eggcorn?

In the MyDD blog this morning, I found this sentence:

"As you might know from reading my posts in the past, I don't usually
addend my own thoughts to my interviews."

"Addend" looks like a cross between "add" and "append" and possibly a
back-formation from "addendum." Has anyone in this group encountered it?
