WORKSHOP: Your Writer's Mission Statement
Why purpose is a powerful motivator for writers, and how to find yours! 💥
Hello folks,
Well, the last couple of weeks have been a ride! My decision to do #100DaysOfWriting this year was a bit last minute, but I cobbled together the necessary information and put the word out. I had an ambitious goal of reaching 100 people, and was hoping that at least ten of those might actually pay me a few £$ to join a private writing room once a week, and chat inside a private community space. I didn’t know if it would work.
As I write, we’ve smashed that goal, and the numbers keep going up! Now, I’m a word person, not a numbers person, but there’s something very satisfying about watching those figures tick up. Even better is this ‘Introduce Yourself’ post, where it’s clear that the ethos of this gentle writing challenge has chimed with people all over the world. How very lovely indeed!
And so, we are now embarked on #100DaysOfWriting, but it’s not too late to join in. You can start your own day count TODAY, or simply jump in alongside us. Check my social media feeds on Substack Notes and Instagram to see what day we’re on. All you have to do is sign up here.
But, it’s back to business as usual here at The Inkwell and it’s time for our September workshop, which will be on a topic I know many of you are curious about.
