ERGONOMIC MISCHIEF is now closed.
It was fun. It was also a lot of work. I wouldn't recommend a daily 1000 word blog.
This was a place where I could share a daily blog.
​
For three years, I posted every day.
​
I started this on December 31, 2021.That 1000 words a day goal was daunting, but it helped improve my writing. During this last year, I wrote about a different record every day.
My last post was on December 31, 2024.
Each blog was a first draft, warts and all, and they reflected my thoughts at the moment I sat down to write. I appreciate everyone who made the site part of their day.
