What does it mean to go pro? To deliver every day, no matter what. There’s so much ‘advice’ from professional writers about what it means to write. Commit, they say. Every day they say. No matter what, they say.
But what most professional writers fail to account for is that they’re pros. And pros have to deliver. If you’re not a pro and don’t aspire to be, then ‘every day’ doesn’t matter. No matter what doesn’t matter. Committing doesn’t matter. If the act of writing or drawing brings you joy, if you find happiness in being in a state of occasional flow, if it’s a hobby and not a profession, then doing it whenever you want is totally fine.
