Update — Life lessons on my 365 days writing Challenge On Medium
Reflecting On My Progress — Joined The 200 Club!
Five months of daily writing on Medium
Thank you — ALL!
Marking the 200th Story Milestone in My 365-Day Writing Challenge!
I have finally hit the double century in storytelling — 200 stories, and I still have plenty of words left! 📚✨
I opened my Word Hotel doors to all of you on July 24th, 2023!
After five months of writing one story daily, I have reached 200 stories.
I opened my doors to all of you on July 24th, 2023. Like a good hotel, I ensured everything was well-prepared, resulting in clean and tidy writing. You came to visit, some for a short stay and others for a longer duration.
You all were very tidy and left beautiful comments. Some left more than others, but I am grateful for all. It has been lovely; no one has destroyed anything. Most have been respectful, and no one has overused or abused any appliances!
I serve up my writing early in the morning to get it out of the way. I aim not to overload you with my servings. Occasionally, I have sent out more than one story. But I do not want to give you indigestion, so I limit it to one per day for now. I am sure that keeps you full.

Some stayed long-term
As I mentioned before, some of you have stayed on long-term, some have come occasionally, and some have not come back!
Not every hotel is for everyone’s taste, so I understand that. But I offer a variety of stories. So, if you have not visited recently, return when you’re ready! I am constantly upgrading and redecorating. Things will continually change.
For now, I am happy and content with what I have. And for those of you who keep on returning, thank you. My door is always open; all forms of tiny compensation in claps, highlights, and comments are appreciated!
What I have learned and what has happened:
- I write stories very quickly, and my writing is speeding up.
- I must not get too sucked into Medium. I need to balance it with the vast world out there. Hence, I continue doing everything I love, such as going out with friends and family, hitting the gym, skating, and more. Life is for living.
- I can consistently earn over $100 monthly if I engage with others and write regularly.
- Be happy with whatever I get. Happiness comes not only with monetary rewards but also with friendships.
- Engaging with others is key. Visit new people regularly and go out to meet them. You can be friends with different people. You don’t have to have a clique or a small circle of friends. Associate with others — sometimes!
- This platform is terrific for those new to publishing online. It gives confidence and a sense of pride.
- There is so much to learn about people worldwide.
- Writing can connect people of various backgrounds and unite us to have fun, share sadness and happiness, and support each other.
- Don’t get too caught up in arguments online. Let those without sin cast the first stone.
- Don’t be too hard on others. Many of us have issues and problems that people do not know about. So be happy and friendly, and show empathy.
- Give back to the community!
This is for all of you. Just in case I go away! KEEP SMILING…
