Day 23: Sustainable Writing Routines

How to build a routine that lasts beyond this challenge.

Can you believe it? You’ve shown up to write for 23 days. That’s a huge accomplishment. Whether you’ve hit every single writing goal or missed a few along the way, what matters most is this: You’ve built momentum. You’ve started consistently showing up.

But as the challenge nears its end, you might be wondering, “What happens after Day 30?” Today’s focus is all about answering that question. A 30-day sprint is powerful, but learning how to keep going when the challenge ends is even more powerful.

Life doesn’t always make space for daily, long writing sessions. The best writers don’t rely on perfect conditions; they rely on routines. And those routines are realistic ones. They’re flexible. They’re sustainable. They bend with your life instead of breaking under pressure.

So let’s design the next phase of your writing journey, and let’s make it one you can actually maintain.
