CONGRATULATIONS!

Hey friends, we made it! 🥳

What a ride, right?! Together we posted 1133 posts! 🤯

I’m extremely glad y’all participated, and I hope you got something out of it.

Today is the last “daily” post aggregating writing from everyone that wrote something yesterday. But in a week or two, I’ll post something else here, a small personalized digital gift for everyone that participated (but it takes me a bit of time to make, so please be patient 😘). I think you’ll like it.

I’ll also do a lookback/review type post on my own publication

Meaning-Making

where I’ll talk about my experience hosting this and my lessons learned.

As for today, I’m really curious about your answers to today’s (last) prompt! So if you have a few minutes, I’d appreciate you commenting below. 🙏🏼

When I first started this newsletter, I promised myself I won’t debate points of view I disagree with. The only exception was things I used to believe in but no longer do, as in that case I could explain the whole process that took me from here to there. Arguing with points of view I can’t relate to is way too abstract and highly unlikely to convince anyone anyway, I’d much rather chat with someone face to face and personally hear what exactly is their opinion and why.

a 100-word story | Yuelian Hong | 04/20/2023
i made it to the end of the 100-day Creator Challenge, woohoo! 🥳 i thought about writing a special “last” post today, reflecting on things i’ve learned and still aspire to and whatnot, but in the end i decided that was Quatsch (one of my favorite german words which means something like “nonsense” or “baloney”). of course this isn’t my last draft post
