I have to admit, I don’t feel ready or motivated to write 500 words a day (two pages). It’s work. I know there will be days where I feel like writing, but many days I won’t. And that’s the point. The point is to write consistently, daily, regardless of my feelings.

Here are the rules I work with (create your own if these don’t suit you):

1. Write two pages every day — that’s 500 words (Unless you’re a poet). The goal is not perfection. The goal is two pages of a crappy first draft. Quantity, not quality.
2. Write six days a week.
3. Take one day each week off.
4. Write 2 pages a day until the last day of June, 2024.

Let’s see what happens!
