October is here! 🍂

Two 1,000 Words Daily writing challenges are now in the bag - let’s dive right into number three!

I’ve found this daily writing exercise incredibly helpful. I’m going again, and you’re more than welcome to join me.

Just to reiterate: you don’t have to be writing a book, either - the challenge could help you bang out a stack of blog articles, for instance. And if you can’t quite manage to write every single day or don’t reach the 1,000-word mark every time, don’t worry - it’s the taking part that counts here!

And for this month, I’ve added in some optional rest days to make it all the more manageable.

To join the challenge, just click the button below, add your name and Substack profile, and start logging your daily wordcount. 👇

Make sure to bookmark the sheet and check back each day to update your wordcount. You can also share your progress on Notes (it’s a great way to stay motivated).

Let’s keep the ball rolling! 🎃
