What I Wish I Knew About Writing Every Single Day
As I write for the 151st day in a row, some quick thoughts come to mind.
- Each day will not go like you planned it — life happens.
- You need to adjust your writing schedule to plan for other events.
- Family comes first, so your writing takes a back seat from time to time.
- When you change your daily routine, there is a domino effect and you lose your time to write.
- On a good note, your fans come out of nowhere and start following you.
Today was one of those days and I don’t know where the day went.
So a short one to keep the streak alive.
Stay flexible but always remember why you’re writing.
Are you saying thank you enough?
