Re (2): I am not sure about the one-day-off-per-week. I think it’s healthy; also I’m not sure that, looking back in a year or two, whether most residents will think “I wish I took it all a bit more measured” or “I’m glad I went all out” that month.
Re (3): Perhaps next Inkhaven, the mandatory things will be:
Publish 500 words every day.
Share your writing with a minimum of one feedback circle per week, and with one advisor per week.
I think some alternate form of (2) could be interesting, where instead of the requirement being 500 words/day it’s 1000 words/2 days or 1500 words/3 days. I feel kind of hampered by daily posting because there’s a few longer posts I’m working on and what I want are some 8 hour deep work sessions on them and instead I’m doing them in these terrible 2-3 hour bits.
Thanks, v helpful!
