Hi, I like that you’ve coined your own term. So creative! I agree that the process of writing and getting feedback and repeating the process each week does make us better as writers. If I read back my work from 3 months ago when Write of Passage started, to now, I am floored by how different the voice is… I’ve learned so much from everyone here on substack.
That's awesome! It's so great to hear you're getting the results you want.
I feel the same way. When I look back at my oldest editions, I almost feel the need to post a newer, better version. Well, there's always the next one.
I've shared this a few times and everyone loves it!
Thank you so much, Chris!

The consistency is just a mere consequence of that intrinsic motivation.
Exactly. No immersion -> no intrinsic motivation -> no consistency.
