The Write Practice

Build Your Writing Practice

You want to become a writer, and you might even have some extra time now to make it happen. But you’re not sure how to stay disciplined. Maybe you're overwhelmed and stressed. Or you're discovering it's really hard to build your own habits and routines into your day.

Still, you’re ready to commit and focus on your writing (or refocus). Where do you start?

Well, that's where our 7 Day  Writing Challenge comes in!

A Writing Habit Is Better Than Discipline

Every day, I get emails from people saying, “I want to be a writer, but I don’t have the discipline to finish anything.”

And I get that because that’s where I was. Strike that. That’s where I AM all the time. Even after finishing fourteen books, I still struggle daily with discipline.

That’s why I like habit so much more than discipline. A habit is something you do without thinking. You don’t have to be disciplined to have a habit. You just do it.

Setting aside a time to write creates a tiny bit of structure in your day. It's a way to tap into your creativity in the midst of stress. Best of all, you'll join a community of writers all cheering you on toward the same goal.

How do you kickstart a habit, though? Well, one way is to focus on it for a short period of time, like seven days; get a group together, like this community; and make building the habit a fun challenge! So that's what we're going to do!
