I made the mistake of telling my husband about it. I wasn’t sure I could do it. I wasn’t sure I wanted to do it. He told me I could and I should. I gave him several excuses. He didn’t listen. He just kept telling me to do it. So I did.
I signed up to do a 31 day writing challenge. It’s a challenge to bloggers to write for 31 consecutive days.
In the light of a new day, I’m cringing at my decision. I don’t have the time. I already have a fairly full calendar. I’m trying to keep up with four seniors in high school while my husband works all week long in another city! There are already some days where I feel like I’m just keeping my head above water. This is just not the right time. At least that’s what I tell myself…
Honestly, it’s my fear that gives me pause. What am I going to write about for 31 days straight?! I’m not that creative. That kind of writing is for other, more talented writers; not me. And what if I fail? What if I miss a day?
What if?
What if I take a leap of faith and dive in? What if this causes me to grow as a writer and a person? And what if I do miss a day? It’s not eternal.
So here I go. I’m not sure what this will look like. I’m not sure it will be pretty. But here I go….I’m getting it out there.
