Feels like cheating

I always try to tell a story, share a bit of knowledge or offer an insight with my posts. But coming up with something interesting every day is the true challenge of keeping the streak.

The writing itself is easy by now. It doesn't take that much effort to write a couple of hundred words. Bit after all the posts it is becoming increasingly hard to come up with new ideas every day. It's not like those wouldn't be available. It's just the extra effort they require compared to just writing something boring.

Boring should be ok too! I never committed writing something interesting every day. That has been just a bonus. I have been overdoing it even if I didn't have to. Sure, it also makes the writing more interesting for me. It's fun to learn new things even if the purpose of that learning is just to know enough about the topic to being able to write about it.

The easy topic is always the writing itself. It's always there even if it might feel like a boring topic. The one I have returned to at so many times. But surely, given my experience, even that should be of interest for other aspiring writers.
