I’ve joined the 31 Days of Five Minute Freewrites. Read more about it here.
Day 19 Who
Who would willingly use random writing prompts to freewrite on a blog for
one whole month? Me, that’s who.
Why did
I decide to do this?
Firstly, I think it’s a great way to get those writing
juices flowing again after being stagnant for quite a while. Knowing I have to
write for 5 minutes without my inner editor wagging a finger at me and forcing
me to correct everything is good for me. I don’t really like to put out
unedited writing (or, okay let’s be honest, slightly edited), but that in itself
is good for me, who can be slightly perfectionist when it comes to writing for
public scrutiny.
Secondly, this is a great way to meet a few new bloggers and I’ve
already come across several whose blogs I’m returning to because they are
interesting people and write well! Inspiration, I say.
And thirdly, it’s Fall,
and I just feel like getting back into a little bit of blogging again and what
better way to make a commitment to something than to sign up for it?
Who wouldn’t
join a freewriting challenge when there are at least three benefits to it? And besides, it’s really not too risky.
Skipping a day or two or three doesn’t really matter. Who doesn’t like that?
I love your thoughts on who! I also love the Five Minute Friday community. It is a great way to practice writing and meet new people. Nice to "meet" you today. I'm your neighbor at #FiveMinuteFriday. Blessings to you!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your "who" today. Thanks for sharing and setting an example for other writes "who" seem to struggle with it.
ReplyDeleteLike your writing. I sometimes wonder why I sign up for things too - been doing the April A to Z challenge for five years now. But you're right. There are many interesting people to meet.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your blog post, and learning a little bit more about why you write. I also love the Five Minute Friday community, and the friendship and camraderie of this group. I hope you have a lovely weekend!
