Happy New Year, writers.
I'm not going to tell you this is your year to finally finish that book. Or that you need to write every day. Or that you should have your goals mapped out.
Instead, let's start gently.
This weekend's creative spark: The First Pages
New year. Fresh notebook. Blank screen. But no pressure.
Your no-pressure exercise:
Write for just 15 minutes about: "Something I want to pay attention to this year..."
Not goals. Not resolutions. Just... attention.
Maybe it's:
- The way light changes through your window
- Small moments of connection
- The stories your body is telling you
- What makes you feel alive
- The questions you're sitting with
Start where you are. Write what's true. Trust what emerges.
Share in the comments if you feel called: What are you paying attention to? Or just drop a ☕ to let us know you're here and writing.
Welcome to 2026. Your words matter here. 💫✨
