Yay! We did it! We made it through what seems like the longest month in history, January 2025. đ
I mean seriously, is it just me? Or was that a looooong month?
Despite time traditionally flying when you’re having fun, I did have a wonderful time blogging every day and visiting other blogs whenever I could. I hope you did too!
So tell me how you did with the challenge this year. Did you post every day in January? Did you at least jot something somewhere? Let me know in the comments, or write your own “I did it! #JusJoJan25 Edition” post in the next few days, even if you only posted once, and link it back here.
Thank you so much to everyone who joined in on this, our 11th annual Just Jot it January! Here’s your annual participant badge to use in your “I did it” post or to pin anywhere you’d like.
Well hello there! It’s time for our final prompt for Just Jot it January 2025. Today’s prompt is more of a SoCS-style prompt in that it’s not an entire word. But don’t feel obligated to write a stream of consciousness/no editing allowed post. Plan away!
Your prompt for JusJoJan January 31st, 2025 is “fini.” Find a word that has “fini” in it and use that as your prompt word. Have fun!
If you’d like to see the entire prompt list for Just Jot it January 2025, you can find it HERE.
