“The art of writing is the art of discovering what you believe.” – Gustav Flaubert

Writing is always more fun (and more consistent) when you aren't doing it alone. That’s why I’m asking you all to join me for an October Writing Challenge! 🍂 October Writing Challenge 👻 Goal: Build momentum before NaNoWriMo by writing a little every day in October. Challenge Guidelines: - ✅ Write at least 500 words a day (or pick your own daily goal). - ✅ Share weekly check-ins in the community (progress, struggles, wins). - ✅ Bonus: End the month with a short story, 15k words toward a project, or just a stronger writing habit. Weekly Prompts (for Skool + IG) - Week 1: Fall into Routine 🍁 → Establish your writing spot & habit. - Week 2: Cozy Up with Characters 🔥 → Write a scene that reveals something new about your MC. - Week 3: Plot Twists & Pumpkins 🎃 → Add an unexpected turn to your story. - Week 4: Harvest Your Words 🌾 → Reflect, revise, or expand on your strongest piece this month. 👉 Caption idea to announce the challenge:“October is the warm-up lap for writing season. 🍂 Before November’s NaNoWriMo rush, we’re setting a simple goal: 500 words a day for 31 days. It’s not about perfection. It’s about building cozy consistency. Who’s in?”

The days get shorter.
