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.

This is for the ones who are just starting, coming back or are in a moment where the blank page sits and waits: For the days the words don’t come. Sit with silence like an old friend. Start ugly. Begin broken. Finish gently. Let it go. And when the world asks what you made... say only this: “I made a way back to myself"

Choose up to three perspectives (by which I mean people, not POV) you don't ordinarily write from (ie a baby or a very old person, someone super confident or insecure, or something more specific like a profession - the important bit is that they see the world differently than you do). Now write about a routine, mundane task from their perspective - going to work, cooking dinner, waiting in line. Then - only at the end - tell us what type of person (or people, if you did multiple) you chose. This could also be a different emotion or even genre - ie the same scene shown in a happy/angry/horror/action/romantic light. Optional constraints, if structure helps you or you want additional challenge: - Set a timer for minimum or maximum time - Set a page or wordcount target (again, minimum or maximum depending on what you wanna practice) - Write in an unfamiliar POV (i.e. 2nd person if you wanna get wacky) Post your work in Daily Write with Weekly Prompt 2 in the post title so I can find them! Unpolished is alright, preferred even.
