I'm going to take a break

But not a break from writing - just a break from the urge to write every single day.

I've got a lot of other stuff going on at the moment, and I'm aware that my daily writing is taking a bit of a beating as a result.

So instead of stressing about it, I'll just give myself permission to ease up on it.

It's entirely possible I'll still continue with a post a day - especially if I have something I want to write about - but this permission allows me to just write when I feel like writing, or to write much less than 500 words a day.

When things settle down a bit again, I'll get back into the daily discipline of writing at least 500 words.

Until then, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the silence.

  1. Part of the reason for writing a considerable amount every day is to create the discipline to consistently write every single day. Once you've done that over a couple of months or more (or less, for some people), you can relax a bit, knowing you can do it. The challenge for most people is getting started in the first place.
