New project: New adventure


Have you heard about the #100daysProject ?
Well I've decided to start one! 
Over the past few months I've been focusing on writing more consistently and making new personal gains, as well coming up with new sets of challenges and lessons. 
I've also helped fellow writers with their projects, story editing, writing skills, and motivation.
Fellow writers and actors ask me all the time: how did I learned to write, what keeps me going, where I get ideas etc. I tell them it's a practise, a practise of continuously letting the creative freak-flag fly so that I don't suppress my own great ideas when they actually come. (That and actual skill and structure)  
So for my 100 days I'm going to continue with that trend, by doing #100daysofWritingPrompts to motivate myself and others. 
If you'd like to join me, and stretch your writing and creativity mussels feel free to follow me on twitter @JaneEHancock where every morning I'll be posting a prompt.
You can use this any way you'd like. Write a poem about it, journal about it, work through that chapter of your novel with the prompt in mind, write a short film where one character only says this in response to everything. You chose, those are a few ways I'm going to challenge myself with it.
I'll also be posting some of the results on my blog and here on facebook and I would love to get other people involved and sharing too! 
When was the last time you did something, by choice, with purpose, consecutively for 100 days? I thought so...
To actors who want to write their own work, to storytellers who want to try poetry, to anyone with fears but big dreams: if you intend to sit down to write that 'thing,' that 'work of art' which you predict with change you life, I can assure you that if you don't already practise writing, it is fricken hard! 
If you want to be involved, tweet, instagram, blog, or whatever using these hashtags: 
#100daysofWritingPrompts #100daysProject  #day1/100
& whichever prompt I write each day ex: #prompt 
Of course anyone is welcome to use the prompts for creative inspiration at anytime, but I suggest pushing yourself and participating. No one will be monitoring you, especially not me, so this is also a practise of self-motivation and integrity. Let's encourage each other by sharing challenges and successes along the way.
I'll be starting first thing tomorrow morning. Who's ready to join me and have some fun?
