I have really enjoyed this process of finding time to write something at the end (or start) of every day, usually something that I have experienced or simply thought about. It has been quite reflective and I think it is making me a better writer, slowly but surely.
The habit of writing has allowed me to submit two pieces to online travel magazines over the last month and a half, whether they get accepted and published is another thing. I have also written a piece for an online travel writing competition, which I am still in the process of editing for submission. I have submitted a pitch for an article to another online magazine. All this is far more than I achieved in the last couple of years of writing and it feels I am just getting started, even if none of these end up getting accepted or winning anything.
On some occasions it has been a rush and I simply have had nothing to say, so have left my most fervent supporters disappointed with a simple one sentence blog. Nevertheless, I have written everyday without fail for the past fifty days, and I hope to continue this habit for as long as I have my laptop or phone and internet connection to upload to.
