Well, 2020 has felt like a marathon with a moving finish line. I usually love this time of year. The twinkle lights. The egg nog. The holiday movies I wrap myself in like a cozy blanket. But even at the end of a “normal” year, I’m often drained, running on empty and limping across the start line that is January 1.

This year, in particular, it was difficult to know what would refill the tank. My tried-and-true methods didn’t always work, and it felt like an ever-changing exploration of trying new things to recover and refocus on my writing. Some years, it’s well into February before I get back into the groove. Who knows what early 2021 will bring!

Each January, I put together a little package of inspirations to help me stay connected to my writing process and reinforce my commitment to my projects. I wasn’t sure if I was going to send 31 Days of Inspiration for 2021, but I realize that we need it now more than ever! I hope you will be interested in joining me.

WHAT IS 31 DAYS OF WRITING INSPIRATION?

31 Days of Writing Inspiration is a gentle, friendly reminder of your commitment to your writing practice right in your inbox. I designed it to deliver meaningful bite-size boosts to help you stay on track. It’s become an annual tradition!

Every day throughout January, you’ll receive a message from me. At the end of each email, you’ll find links to the messages that came before. If you miss one, or want to revisit one of your favorites, this list makes it easy to go back.

This program is designed to connect you to your creativity on a deep, personal level. I’ve never believed that inspiration strikes like a lightning bolt and suddenly—poof!—you’re in the flow. Nor is it a muse who bestows her gifts of inspiration on some and leaves others to founder. Inspiration is simply connection. It’s connection through:

  • Paying attention to the ordinary and extraordinary
  • Cultivating curiosity
  • Allowing space

Join me…it’s free!

Most of us need a little jump-start in January, and especially this January! We feel depleted and worried, and everything feels hard, hard, hard. And the days are short and cold. Let these inspirations lay the foundation for a solid writing practice in 2021.

Each day will have a different inspiration. Sometimes a quote; sometimes a link to an encouraging video; sometimes a short writing exploration; sometimes a short note to bolster your connections to the world around you.
