Streak is alive, @Philip Folsom. Loved reading aboout @Jay Bearfield's successful treatment and @Emile Pretorius' continued commitment to worthy pursuits. Kept my substack going today with a new post about a pervy doctor and the lenghts we'll go to try to fix pain when we feel it. https://painthedistraction.substack.com/p/my-doctor-was-arrested-for-filming

I've missed a few days of check ins but no days of writing, @Philip Folsom. The streak continues at 18. I'm doing double duty today as I neglect my professional life to write a sequel to the short book I wrote for my son when he went to sleep away camp last summer (a sovereign activity inspired by Philip).

Kept the writing streak alive @Philip Folsom and got the Substack published to support the book about mind-body pain symptoms as a distraction from the life I should have been building. Will be posting weekly. Please follow along if interested. https://painthedistraction.substack.com/?r=6vx9o&utm_campaign=profile&utm_medium=profile-page

14 days of 500+ words, @Philip Folsom. Will be launching substack in conjunction with my new project on Tuesday. Would have taken much longer (if ever) to get that going without the accountability here. Hope all had a good weekend.

500+ word streak at 12 days, @Philip Folsom. Went with my wife to hear a renowned author speak last night, and he reminded the aspiring among us that he started writing at 20 (he's now 69) and has not missed a day since. He wrote every day for 15 years before his first book came out, and he's among the most prolific writers alive. Streaks matter. It's all building.
