I flirt with the idea of writing a solid 2,000 words every day from time to time. Although I have found that it is not sustainable for me, the occasional week or two of frantic writing has paid off.
Meanwhile, I keep my socials running, letting people know that I am active and occasionally sharing bits and pieces of my work and my life. Even when I say nothing, these bits and pieces speak for me.
During my forays into 2,000 words per day especially, I can feel my ideas becoming permanent as I type them, preparing to share them and let my words impact the world, even if in a small way.
After all, why do we write if not to make our ideas in some way permanent and impactful?
