Normal operations will now resume

Wordle - Create-31

Tomorrow it’s September 1, so my experiment of posting every day during August has come to an end.

How was it for you?

Knowing that I’d committed to post every day meant I had to ‘live’ some of the improv principles that I often espouse. Often I had absolutely no idea what I was going to write until I sat down at my computer. On these occasions, I’d ‘start anywhere’ and ‘be average’, giving myself space to write something, anything and see what emerged. By ‘being average’ I allowed myself to explore whatever came up without judging or filtering. Often I was surprised with what I wrote. On other occasions I’d ‘write’ a post in my head during the day. Sometimes an idea would come from a conversation, from a blog post I’d read, or from something else that happened. Inspiration is everywhere!

Thanks for taking the journey with me.

The wordle above is made from all the posts in August.
