Imperfectly


It’s been years since I participated in the November daily blog writing challenge.

For 11 years, I competed in challenges like NaBloPoMo and NanoPoblano without fail—until John died.

And then I struggled to find my voice in the same way.

I didn’t stop writing altogether, but I was so raw and unsure that anything I had to write could matter anymore.

I felt the burn to try again this year and threw my hat in the ring.

I’ve already failed. But I’ve decided not to give up.

I’ll do the challenge this year—imperfectly.

  1. I failed as well, missed day one, but as long as we try that’s all that matters in the end.

    • Thanks, Tina. I think part of the key for me this year will be to allow myself to not be so competitive against myself. I just need to write more regularly again.
