So this is the last of my original 100 words a day for 10 days challenge and I'll be writing about how it was. I was both easier and harder than I thought it would be. Easier as once I actually sat down and did it, the words flowed. They weren't always good words but they were there. Hard because some days I had to really force myself to sit down and write them out. Finding inspiration was hard at times also. But one thing that kept me going and will push me into the next 100 word challenge (I hope) is that to do anything, drawing, carpentry, driving, bicycling, whatever, you have to practice. Talent is an illusion. Predisposition for certain skills is a reality but if you do not practice the skill, it will atrophy and never evolve. The creative arts are like dragons or cats, if you don't feed them and pet them, they will go feral.
So here's to the past 10 days and here's to the next 10. A question before I go however, should I just set my 100 word exercises as private? I don't want to clutter your friends list and let's be honest, it's always nice to know if folks are reading your stuff.
