Hello, My name is Richard and I used to be a member on here with a long forgotten account. Back then I used the forum to help motivate me to write poetry after graduating from high school by trying to post something daily as a part of a digital journal entry. That was several years ago, and I have recently felt motivated to start writing poetry again. Though I do not think I can post something original daily, I would like to make a decent collection of poems and see where that takes me.
True! I think declaring my intent to be more creative publicly will help keep me motivated and accountable too.
Welcome back! Same here Some people lose the motivation to keep writing if the basic gist of their idea is already out there, but I am not one of them, and I hope you're not either
Exactly. I thought that if I could make some good connections with people on the forum who are interested in my writing challenge, then my brain would take over and start motivating me I started a Progress Journal to catalog myself: Spoiler https://www.writingforums.org/threads/richards-progress-journal.149663/
