Challenge #8: In your own space, celebrate a personal win from the past year

For me personally, 2021 didn’t actually suck. Shocker, I know, but neither did 2020. Guess I’m just good at pandemics. Anyway, I actually did a couple of things that I’d count as a personal win, but I’m going to mention the one I’m most proud, which I already mentioned in an earlier post. I hit my GYWO target! 75K a year might not sound like a lot to a lot of people, but for me, it is.

For those who don’t know: [community profile] getyourwordsout is a community that offers you a yearly writing commitment. There’s several pledges (habit – where you sign up to write a certain number of days – and word count, where 75k is the lowest level) and you check in once a month with your progress. It was actually really helpful in getting me working on stuff, not all of which was published. And this year’s sign-ups are still open for one or two more days (time zones can be confusing and I don’t want to math right now), so if this sounds like your thing, try it! The worst that can happen is that you don’t make your target, which is probably what’s already happening anyway.

yaaaay! \o/ 75k isn't nothing! (isn't gywo great? not just for accountability but encouragement and support and all the "here's some stuff that might help you in your writing" posts.)
