september 23rd check-in

[erika]

Hey, guys! I'm travelling until Tuesday, so the check ins will be fairly low-key until then, and I apologize.

I hope that everyone had a great day.

Did you:

Write?
Edit?
Research?
Post?
Have a rest?
Do something else?


How did today go for you?
Was it:
Awesome
Great-ish
Mediocre
eh, whatever, or
OH GOD I DON'T EVEN WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT?

Today's discussion topic:

What made you decide to keep writing? I mean, we probably all know why we started, but why do we continue?

Yesterday I did a bit of research and wrote the first 300 words on a fic I'm not even sure about. I feel okay with this as I wasn't planning on starting something new.

I keep writing because I still feel that I need to improve my written English. It also helps me understand my dyslexia and why I make some mistakes more frequently than others.

Congratulations on starting a new fic! It's rough when you're not really sure if you want to continue but you find yourself writing anyway; I totally get that feeling a lot. Mostly with poetry.

I had a rest, pretty much. As days go, it was decent, except for the no writing part!

I keep writing because I still have stories to tell. Also, now that I am doing it, I want to keep getting better and better at the mechanics of it.

I think that's the reason I keep writing too. Stories won't leave me alone, but you know, I don't want them to!
