As Crazy As It Sounds Hi everyone! Prepare to embark on my journey to fluency, because I'm here to share with you the challenge I've engaged in :-) Today, I’m also looking for help. Yes, you, the reader in front of your computer screen (don’t chicken out if you’re in front of your smartphone, it also works…and before you ask, your tablet works too). If you don’t want to help, no problem, I’ll challenge you instead! Sit comfortably and take a deep breath. Ready? Let’s play the notebook where you are the hero. From the three options below, choose the one that best describes you: * I'm a native English speaker -- go to, “I have the power to help.” * I'm an ESL learner -- go to, “I want to improve my English.” * I'm already bored by this text -- go to “The super quick good deed of the day.” == I have the power to help! == Lucky you, you have acquired a mastery in a skill that a lot of people are struggling for! So how can you help me? I’ve engaged in a crazy project: to write an article in English every day, and I’ve been doing this for 101 days. I write on lots of different topics, but sometimes I feel a bit lonely. I’m looking for people willing to help me, fixing a sentence here and there, sharing their opinion, or willing to leave a quick comment on my website to cheer me up. Yes, today I'm looking for motivation more than anything else. So if you have a spare minute, I'd love to have a comment, or just to hear your opinion on the project. (http://www.the-novel-challenge.com) == I want to improve my English (or any language I’m learning) == You're not alone, I'm here with you! Recently, I started a challenge that has had a tremendous impact on my fluency, and I think that you should do the same, that all learners of a foreign language should do the same. "Write every day."

As Crazy As It Sounds

Hi everyone!

Prepare to embark with me on my journey to fluency, because I'm here to share with you the challenge I've engaged in with you :-)

Today, I’m also looking for help. Yes, you, the reader in front of your computer screen (don’t chicken out if you’re in front of your smartphone, it also works…and before you ask, your tablet works too). If you don’t want to help, no problem, I’ll challenge you instead!

Sit comfortably and take a deep breath. Ready?

Let’s play the notebook where you are the hero Choose Your Own Adventure! From the three options below, choose the one that best describes you:

* I'm a native English speaker -- go to “I have the power to help.”
* I'm an ESL learner -- go to “I want to improve my English.” If quotation marks show speech, put a comma in front.  If they show a title, don't use a comma.
* I'm already bored by this text -- go to “The super quick good deed of the day.”

== I have the power to help! ==

Lucky you, you have acquired a mastery in a skill that a lot of people are struggling for to master! So how can you help me? I’ve engaged in a crazy project: to write an article in English every day, and I’ve been doing this for 101 days. I write on lots of different topics, but sometimes I feel a bit lonely. I’m looking for people willing to help me, fixing a sentence here and there, sharing their opinion, or willing to leave leaving a quick comment on my website to cheer me up. "willing to" is a prepositional phrase, so can't be parallel to the verbs "fixing" and "sharing". Yes, today I'm looking for motivation more than anything else. So if you have a spare minute, I'd love to have a comment, or just to hear your opinion on the project. (http://www.the-novel-challenge.com)

== I want to improve my English (or any language I’m learning) ==

You're not alone, I'm here with you! Recently, I started a challenge that has had a tremendous impact on my fluency, and I think that you should do the same, that all learners of a foreign language should do the same.

"Write every day." Yes, this is such a common piece of advice that I feel dumb for not having done this before, and now I feel compelled to spread the word. I encourage you to participate in such a challenge, to read the ESL Blogging Challenge Manifesto (http://the-novel-challenge.com/index.php/2016/10/03/the-esl-blogging-challenge-manifesto/), and to start writing today!

If you're learning French, send me a link and I'll come visit and comment your texts!

== The super quick good deed of the day ==

If you like the idea of the project (writing and publishing a text every day for 365 days), but don't have the time or energy to help, just hit answer and let me know; it will mean the world to me!

Your English is wonderful.  I can't imagine how much work it took to get to your level.
