750 Words Status

1) How did you learn about 750words.com?

I read about it on Lifehacker.

2) What are your interests outside of insanely long streaks of private journaling?  Who are you and how do you define yourself?

I’m a working wife/mom, a hobby photographer/photoblogger, a gardener, a writer, a sparkly nail polish collector and more - to be discovered! I’m still trying to define myself, which is why the journal writing is vitally important to me.  Writing is helping me to test ideas, work through problems and ultimately try to bring out a new and improved me.

3) What do you write about in your super secret private journal?

Everything from the very deep to the incredibly shallow - career issues, the state of my garden, what’s bugging me today, random stories, what makes me happy and what sets me on fire with rage!

4) What kept you coming back to the site, 100 days in a row?

The discovery process - and the badges!

5) Do you find it difficult to stay motivated after 100 days?

No, there is always something new to either wax rhapsodic or complain bitterly about…

6) If you could change anything about the site, what would it be?

Somehow not losing all your hard work if you don’t write all 750 words each day…on day 104 I only wrote 300 words because I wasn’t feeling good and I meant to come back to finish but forgot…the next day when I signed on I was back to the egg and a zero day streak.  I’m still licking my wounds about that one.  Blown streak aside, I intend to continue writing and try to regain the phoenix.

7) Anything else you’d like to add as one of the first people to reach 100 days in a row?

I can’t thank Buster enough for developing 750words.com, it is just what I was looking for!
