It was always my goal to create something that helps people. Regardless of whether you write for fun, self-development or to be a novelist, I hope you find this website useful.
Since you may be new to the site, I wanted to give you a quick tour of all the key features so that you feel at home and get the most out of your time here.
The Goal
I want you to feel encouraged to write every day. You can write as much or as little as you want but in order to “complete” a day, you have to write at least 250 words (approximately a page).
Why the minimum requirement? Think of it as a gentle push, like someone whispering in your ear “you can do it!”.
By typing a page worth of words you’ll feel a sense of accomplishment (hello dopamine!) and be stretched (just a little) so that you can do your best work. I believe that we get the best results when we sweat a little bit.
You can set your daily writing goals as high as you want after that.
