Chapter 1: Introduction to My Writing Journey

Greetings to everyone on Earth! I hope you're all doing well and enjoying pleasant weather. Here in the breathtaking Pyrénées Mountains, we're fortunate to have a stunning blanket of snow adorning the landscape.

This marks the beginning of my “Lunch Time Chilin’” series, with the initial piece serving merely as an introduction. The first article, “Lunch Time Chilin’ N° 000,” set the stage for the purpose behind these writings.

In this installment, I wrapped up with a cliffhanger, reminiscent of popular Netflix series, to illustrate my motivations and the challenges I anticipate. I believe this journey is an excellent strategy for achieving success as a Medium writer.

By posting brief articles daily, I aim to reap various benefits that primarily serve my growth:

• Enhance my English writing skills organically, without the need for translation from French.
• Cultivate discipline by committing to a daily writing schedule, which is crucial for consistency—a key factor in Medium’s algorithm.
• Improve both my writing and speaking fluency in English, allowing for more efficient expression.
• Create a tangible record of my progress as a Medium writer, invaluable for maintaining motivation during challenging times. Reflecting on where I began is essential for growth.

While my primary audience is myself, I am eager to share my experiences, including both triumphs and setbacks. I’ll also highlight projects and ideas that contribute to my side hustle journey.

To conclude, as the “Lunch Time Chilin’” articles are designed to be concise, here are my stats for the day:
