Consistency Challenge: February Fanfare!
February is 28 days. Let’s see what happens if you show up for most of them! This challenge is a low-pressure way for you to build a huge stack of evidence for your identity as a writer. No 30k word goals or hustle required, just a solid foundation of you consistently showing up. Works for newbie novelists, part-time poets, or even industry professionals; anyone can benefit from writing more often. How to join: 1. Comment “I’m in” on this post. 2. Share the group invite link somewhere outside here (text a friend, another Skool group, Reddit, Discord, social, etc.) with a simple note like: “I’m doing a consistency writing challenge in February. If you want to watch me flail or write alongside me, here’s the group. [insert the group link here]” 3. Reply to your own comment with a screenshot or link so I can note who's in. That’s your ticket into the challenge. Telling someone else brings a little accountability and lets you feel more personally invested. What counts as showing up: A day counts if you make a post of about 30+ words in the group - doesn't have to be much, just not "Hey, I'm alive" - that moves your writing forward. Make sure to include "X/28" in the title (X being the number of days you've done) so it's easy for you to keep track. For example: “5/28 - Micro-scene before work” Examples that count: - A Daily Write post - A response to the weekly prompt - A short draft/micro-scene/poem - A list of ideas or titles you might write - A reflection on what blocked you today and what you’ll try tomorrow - A question asking for feedback, with some context or a sample Busy? Kids? Full‑time job or school? All three? No stress! If you can write a short paragraph, you can participate. If you prefer to lurk, no worries, but for the challenge, you've gotta put some actual words down (even if they're not prose). Also - the days don't have to be consecutive! Consistency doesn't mean "become a robot", and we've all got lives; if you need to miss a day or two, no worries.
