Let's try updating on note every day! Yes!
Let's join while we can!
Don't worry. There are over 60 participants.
No one will notice.

How to join
STEP 1 Open the page
Click the URL above.
STEP 2 Post a comment in the comment section
Read the article as it is.
While reading the article, look for the comment section.
Scroll down.
This is my screen.
Normally, your note account icon should be displayed here.
Now, let's write a comment to declare your participation.
…….
…
Wait a minute?!
I don't know what to write!!!!
My hands are shaking.....
I think there are people who feel that way, so
I will post an example.
One line is enough.
Many people have already signed up.
The number of comments on this article is 100.
No one will notice. No one will notice.
Hmm? Is one line too blunt?
Anyway, after 66 days, we will know what kind of person you are to some extent.
At the beginning, something like this is fine.
I think Yasu-san will be happy just by you participating. Probably. (I'm imagining this on my own.)
If you feel that one line is lonely,
I will post as many example sentences as I can think of, so please use them as a reference.
Example sentences
I would like to participate!
I would like to try participating. Thank you for your support.
Nice to meet you. I'm a beginner who just started on note. I'm a bit inexperienced and there are things I'm not used to, but I'd like to give it a try. I'm joining.
I've written a blog before, but I'm a beginner on note. I'm nervous, but I'll try posting every day! I'm joining!
I came here through a recommendation from [Name]. I'm joining.
I'm going to challenge myself to post every day to make diary writing a habit. I'm joining.
I read 'Writing Habits' and am interested in posting every day. I'm anxious, but I'm joining.
I'm joining. I was just a reader, but I'd like to try writing on note.
I waaaaant followers. Maybe I'll give it a try. I am a mass of desire for approval! I'm joining.
I've failed at this before, but I'll try again. I'm joining.
I'd like to join.
|ω･) Peek... May I join?
I'm not sure if this is helpful, but I wrote down everything that came to mind. I wonder if everyone joins with all sorts of different thoughts.
Me?
I'm the type who just joins on a whim.
I don't really get the whole daily posting thing.
Just going with the flow is fine, right? (Irresponsible)
As long as the word 'join' is included, that should be fine.
Feel free to jump in with a comment.
Self-made Q&A
Q. What kind of person is the organizer, Yasushi Ueda?
A. He is someone who has published books with major publishers and taught writing courses in the past.
On note, he has been posting every day for 3 years. He is an iron man who continues to share content centered on 'how to write' every single day.
Yas-san's note is
easy to read, easy to understand, and interesting.
I recommend it.
As a side note, when I wrote an article following Yas-san's note article, it was selected as a note official 'Today's Featured Article.' It is entirely thanks to Yas-san. Of course, if you ask me if I only read Yas-san's articles, I did look at others' as well, but Yas-san's were the ones I felt were the most useful.
I will keep thanking you over and over again.
Q. What is a magazine?
note has a collaborative magazine feature.
Members participating in the writing challenge can join the magazine.
You'll get used to how to use it. You'll understand once you try it.
Reader: "What do you mean 'you'll understand once you try it'?"
You're right.
I will write an article explaining how to do it at a later date.
Reader: "When is 'a later date'?"
..........
Right.
I will release an explanatory article on June 27th, the first day of the writing challenge.
If you want to know the details beforehand, please go to the official note help page.
For now, can we put the magazine explanation aside?
First of all,
I just want you to join before the deadline♡
We can talk about the rest after that.
Because, it's fun, you know? The hell of daily posting.
Everyone starts on June 27th
Everyone finishes on August 31st
It's fun. I'll read them. Please let me read them.
I will read them. So, please write articles. I'm telling you, I'll read them!
(You'll gain followers... (whisper))
(No, followers aren't the only motivation, though. (whisper))
To all of you who are budding famous note creators.
Let's join together!

Huh? Participation fee?
Are you worried about the participation fee?
It's freeeeeeeeeeee!!
Afterword
This is my first time participating in this project.
Even so, I went ahead and wrote this. It's embarrassing.
I listened to the internet radio show that Yasu-san hosts personally yesterday. During the broadcast, he mentioned that "people who have just started on note are also participating."
I thought to myself, "If they are note beginners, then writing in someone else's comment section might be their first time doing that, too. They must be nervous. They probably don't really understand what a magazine is, either." And so, I wrote this article.
It's difficult to explain the magazine feature, so I can't go into detail. Isn't it fine to figure out the small details as you go and get used to it? After all, there are 66 days. It'll work out somehow.
[Related] This person's overview of the project is easier to understand! They also mention the basis for the "66 days."
Highly recommended
