The Good Patrons of 750 Words

A Note of Inspiration from Barbara McNeely

1 cup

A friend of mine announced in January that she had started writing daily in 750 words. At first it did not appeal to me. I had my journals, after all. I could just write in there.

As time passed, she continued to talk about 750 words and the motivation she was getting from it. So, after nearly two months, I gave it a try. At first I was writing about whatever came to mind. And over time I found that I rarely was at a loss for words. Over time, I found that I liked the encouragement given by badges and a report on the number of words written. And then I began committing to the monthly challenges.

I started on March 18th, 2015 and I have now written over 130,000 words here. I tried recently to move my writing to the end of the day, but that did not work out so well. Because I have found that I use 750 words as my morning brain dump and planning session. I’m very much hooked on 750 words now.
