The Good Patrons of 750 Words

A Note of Inspiration from Patrick Randall

1 cup
15 min/day challenge option

I think that when just starting out, the prospect of the time commitment required to reach 750 words can be a bit daunting for many. I propose a 15 minutes per day option that would allow users to keep their daily writing promise even if they lead a busy lifestyle. I realize this is harder to enforce digitally, perhaps a minimum word amount could also be associated. I was fortunate that the quarantine came along to gift me the time to get to 750 words every day, but I feel that by and large people drop out of the challenge because time gets in the way. If the goal is to get and keep more people writing, this feature seems like a complete no-brainer to me. The concept shows up time and time again in habit-formation readings including James Clear’s book, Atomic Habits. I think it would really push the daily writing cause forward and keep more folks engaged. Not that I have completed my challenge that is how I intend to use this service for the remainder of my subscription. I want to keep the habit alive and I know I will eventually quit if I have this pressure to get to 750 words every. single. day. Thanks for creating this platform and keep up the good work!
