Challenge #15

In your own space, create your own challenge. Leave a comment to this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

This is a challenge I'm currently trying to live, with varying levels of success. I call it... Do The Thing. I'm a creature of habit and rarely try something new, but those times I do, it usually works out way better than I was expecting. As an example, I like to go for walks, and I've lived in the same area for over a decade, and I always took the left path. But last summer, I went right... and the right walk is way better than the left walk! Full of super cute birbs! And a hiking trail that I get semi-lost on 95% of the time, but I followed it all the way to the end at least twice!

Fannishly, I'm basically the same. I circle things for ages before finally deciding to Do The Thing. Maybe read that story someone recced to me months ago, or join that exchange I've been eyeballing for probably years, or subscribe to that journal that shows up in my network sometimes.

So, yes, I am trying to Do The Thing, and it's going all right.

DO THE THING! It's hard and sometimes it doesn't work out, but as long as nobody dies, right? : )
And y'know, I tell myself that I don't always have to do the thing because sometimes I just need the comfort of sameness.
