This was initially a response to one of Chris Marchie’s articles: I’m not more positive than you.
Actually, thank you for this, because I needed to remind myself today specifically.
In truth, any activity that requires people to write one page, let alone three, will lose 95% of the people after they read the word “write.”

I took a 30 day hiatus from writing. I didn’t blog. I didn’t journal. I didn’t do much reading. I didn’t do much of anything with regard to writing.
OK, I still wrote emails. AND, I also wrote in my planner every day. But, I didn’t do the writing which…
