A friend of mine, Mandy, and I are doing a writing challenge. We start on Monday, June 21, 2022.

Rules

We are keeping them simple. Write on any topic and have 1,000 words at the end of the day.

Goals

To become for effective and efficient at writing. Spend less time etc.

My Game Plan for this 30 Day Writing Challenge

I just plan on writing daily in here. There will be drafts that I’ll add to or combine. This may changed as the challenge progresses

My Topics to Write On

This is my running topic and articles list. Anything related on Adventure, Professional articles in marketing or general business, how to articles that have helped me.

  • Subtopics of having an adventurous lifestyle
    • Mindset
    • Safety
    • Planning and Packing
  • Past adventures
    • New Orleans and those places
    • Local Eats
  • Professional Topics
    • SEO as a Long Term Strategy

My Goals

I want to get more content on here and for work’s website as well. I won’t post what I’ve written for work, but I will talk about what I wrote.

Another goal of mine is to be more efficient with writing and using tools that help me grow as a content writer and write in general.

The last goal is to become more accountable for what I want and to make it happen with consistency.

My Process

Starting off, figuring this out at the beginning of Day 2, select a general topic or article from my list and get an outline going before work. I need to write down the list to reference.
