At the end of 2022 I had the crazy idea to start a writing project for 2023.
The rules I set for myself
- I would create the text on the day itself (if at all possible)
- I would write a minimum of 250 words (so at least 91250 words in total)
- I picked the prompts in one go to stop myself from overthinking
- I could put it into an online grammar checker to eliminate mistakes
- No editing
- No research
The obstacles
- I have ADHD which means I get bored easily
- I have zero consistency
- I’ve never before managed to pull off something similar
- I have two kids, a lot of books to write, a job, a marriage, a fixer upper etc
The benefits
- Getting more comfortable sharing my writing
- Stop overthinking and worrying about criticism so much
- Get to create 365 different story lines (if I wanted to) which helps me not get bored
- Explore, grow, and learn
- Have content to share (valid, right?)
I’d be delighted if you joined me, no matter if it’s for a day, a couple of days, weeks, the entire year. Make sure to tag me so I can share your creations 🧡
