Hi Alex, I seem to be seeing more references to morning pages lately, must be something in the electrons.
I did a full six week practice years ago and yep, it can be quite hard to fill 3 pages per morning (note that she never really specifies what paper size so there's a difference between, say, an A5 sized notebook page and a 8.5 by 11 page so there's that to consider). I already have a daily journaling practice but occasionally I'll freewrite in a similar style. In my experience this is the kind of practice that you need to get up at least one hour early to do, which is a bit more challenging in the winter.
Mark— I’m glad I’m not the only one! Good point about the size of paper, I have been using her morning pages journal and it is an 8.5 x 11– quite spacious! But it’s been a really nice practice. Thanks for sharing!

Glad it's working for you!
