The answer, with the 100 Day Project, is always, yes.
It doesn't have to be all about 1 specific thing. I'm a 'needs structure and flexibility' person myself. You could set your Daily as something super flexible like "sit at desk and mark paper for 1 minute". The variety of outcomes would be wonderful to see at the end.
But to go back to your actual question — you don't have to document anything at all, if you don't want to. It's the act of doing that's the most important thing 😊
P.S. I like the idea you shared, let me know if you do document here — I'd follow along.
I’m so exited to start!! Right now I’m in the midst of an eight week abstract painting class and a 12 week collage class, so I made my project intentionally simple this year! I can’t wait to get started and to see what everyone else is up to!
Me too! Would love to hear more about what kind of zine you’re thinking about?:) and oh yes- zine- I’ve been calling my percolating thing a “e-mag”- zine sounds way more inviting!;)

I’m so excited to start! I do a lot of business writing for work and artsy crafty stuff for fun. My 100 day project is creative writing. Got my notebook and ready to start.
I’m glad you’re here! To simplify the prompt, you can think of it as 1) do your project today, and 2) jot down a few observations (what happened, how you felt, etc.). The purpose is to practice getting curious about your process 💓
I did it! I changed my mind up until the very last minute then just picked an idea and did it. I'm new to drawing (sort of always) because I have never really practiced. Now I get to every day and the entire world gets to see it. Yay?
i’m new to drawing also! i’m going to try one small sketch of a person/portrait every day! this is a stretch for me, but i’m bringing my beginner’s mind and am ready to embrace my wonky results!
I just posted my 1/100 SiDEWAYS “Encouragement” comic strip:) (well, no 2 if you count my initial shaky proclamation!;) thank you for the company! What a joy to look around me here:)
Interested in doing this for past three years. I am ready to give myself the nudge to another level of sketching. Goal: watercolor people from snapshots. This step is creating the sketching I need as a skill set
Excited to start with this commitment and intention in a community. My project is to nurture my creative every day. That means drawing or painting something for at least 10 minutes everyday. I
It’s not hard for me to commit because I already do a 10 minute project daily, but making it all just one thing…. Boy that’s tricky
Can I work daily but have something to show only every 4 days? I’m thinking of bringing the whole Ten Minute Artist group along for this ride!
PS: I’ve been experimenting with this idea of posting a note then tagging a project / substack, what do you think of that?
Yeah! A lot of people do collaborative projects!

I like your perspective.

Yes! Curiosity > fear = creativity:)

Good question! That's exactly what I came here looking for.
I've been interested in making a zine so on day one I'm watching some how-to videos and gathering my materials!
Awesome! I love zines. They’re addicting :)
Me too! Would love to hear more about what kind of zine you’re thinking about?:) and oh yes- zine- I’ve been calling my percolating thing a “e-mag”- zine sounds way more inviting!;)

Hey April! This is the prompt for today.
Ok. The most important thing. I’m excited to be a part of this journey for 100 days.

Is there a theme for this first week?
Getting started!
I did it! I changed my mind up until the very last minute then just picked an idea and did it. I'm new to drawing (sort of always) because I have never really practiced. Now I get to every day and the entire world gets to see it. Yay?
Yay!
