In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Winning Streak.”
What’s the longest stretch you’ve ever pulled off of posting daily to your blog? What did you learn about blogging through that achievement, and what made you break the streak?
I have been posting almost daily for more than 2 months now, but it was the NaBloPoMo that has made me post regularly to my blog for the past 30 days at a stretch.
In reality, I have not been able to understand the importance of the daily blogging habit. Well I enjoy writing and so I do not mind doing it but why should it be a must ? I have taken the #100happydays challenge as well and that has made it easy to post everyday too. When I have something to say or share, I enjoy doing that. The Daily Post has given me adequate inspiration or I have interpreted the prompts in my own way.
I have developed a writing habit and that is a good thing. It gives me something to do – it serves as a wonderful outlet – a way or reaching out to all the lovely people I have met through this forum. I have become less inward looking and am able to reflect my mood through this medium.
I feel it has helped me grow, make friends, improve my expressions as well as my writing ability. I have a thousand thoughts still waiting to find expression – some personal, some philosophical, some inward looking, some forward looking. But it is basically my views and opinions and experiences. As I gain confidence in doing this perhaps I will take to writing about issues outside my personal zone which is presently my comfort zone.
Till then suffice to say ,I have loved this “Winning Streak” and hope to continue. Here’s a shout to all those lovely people who have contributed to this growth..my older friends and family and my newer friends in the blogging Family. The comments the likes the exchange the support has woven a tapestry of the colors of life that I will treasure for ever.
Thank you, everyone. Thank you, WordPress.
Cheers!!
Really lovely.,I feel the same way writing every day. I’m too scared to miss a day in case I get a relapse and not able to write anymore, I’ve never written publicly before it even poetry, it is just something I’ve started recently and can see the wonderful benefits xo
