Question for those who are following along for #FediJournJan - have you been seeing the #FediWriMo community posts here?

I looked yesterday, and didn't see any of the posts I've made over the past few days, so I was wondering if anyone else is following from a Mastodon / Goto Social / etc. instance and has been seeing the posts.

TLDR: The FediWriMo Community is holding a Journaling January event. The event will run the whole month of January. More details below and on the FediWriMo PieFed Community: https://feddit.online/c/nanowrimo2

As we get closer to the start of Journaling January here’s the information you need:

I’ve added a document to the wiki on How To Set Up TrackBear: https://feddit.online/community/nanowrimo2/wiki/TrackBearSetUp for this (or any other FediWriMo) event.

To complete your setup, you will need the leaderboard Join code:

I’ve also added a rather lengthy document regarding Journaling that I hope will answer questions for folks that have not journaled before. Of course, it may also cause mass confusion… But, always take the most simple answer. Here’s the document:

I posted this over on the FediWriMo community about a week ago... I am wondering if there would be people interested in doing a #journal #writing "competition" in January?

The idea is: 31 days, write 2–3 pages per day. The idea isn't like the FediNoWriMo, where the goal is to only reach the word count for a novel.  Instead, this is about developing the daily writing habit.

One of the cooler aspects of this, that I forgot to mention, would be that it doesn't make a difference what you use: it could be a paper journal, an #eInk device, a computer, a cell phone, whatever you have.

I wrote more about it here: https://feddit.online/c/nanowrimo2/p/1244581/journaling-january-competition
