The 31 day challenge is a challenge that helps writers get into a writing habit. I came across this challenge while searching around online. I will post the blog where I found this challenge soon. But the challenge goes as followed: you write 500 words for 31 days. It doesn't matter what you write nor where you write, except emails doesn't count. My question is: have you tried writing for a certain time with a certain amount to write? Does this work for you? If not, what worked for you?

I have a writing schedule, but due to computer issues, I have allow myself to lack in my writing. However I write everyday, here and there. I also have a journal. Although, I tend to skip days inside of it. (I hate reading what I write in my journey so I tend to give myself time to forget what I write-_-)
