My first stop was My Purple Dreams. Violet is participating in the Blog Everyday Challenge and of course, her post for Day 1 caught my eye:
Day 1: The story of your life in 250 words or less (or one paragraph... no one will be counting your words... probably)
This prompt tickled my fancy so I clicked over to have a look at the other prompts. It looks promising. BUT, I really don't think I am up to another full month of writing daily. After all I just finished NaBloPoMo for June and I did NOT do well at all. Writing everyday is hard, and it's even harder when you aren't feeling any inspiration. And that is how I write, I have to be inspired or the words just do not flow.
I am not going to let myself get drawn into another challenge I can't complete. But I think I will take a stab at a few of the prompts from this challenge that interest me. So, be on the look out! And thanks to Violet for providing me with some new inspiration! I hope you will click over and check out her blog and follow her progress throughout the month! :)
Don't forget to sow some love into your day! |
I know what you mean, Tamara. I tried the Wordcount Blogathon - another 'blog every day' and was fine until the 17th. Then I missed a day. Posted a day. And after that it was intermittent for the rest of the month. If I miss a day, I've had it! But I'll definitely be checking back to see what else you have for us from time to time this month. It's good to take a rest, though. Hope you feel refuelled soon.
ReplyDeleteSusan,
DeleteExactly! If I miss a day it is all down hill from there! And I have a real bad habit of over extending myself so I am trying to be mindful of that. So I will be trying to let myself rest and only post when I feel that spark! :-)
We all need bloggy breaks once in a while.... I'm starting this project strong, and have a few posts ready to go ahead of time, but the prompts get tougher later on, so we'll see how well things go! Thanks for the link-up! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome, I love linking up to your blog! :)
DeleteI actually spent this morning drafting some blog posts based on some of the Blog Everyday prompts. We will see how it goes!
