😅 "Do I need to draw every day?"
This challenge is meant to be fun. Anyone can participate at their individual level of commitment. It might be helpful to set a goal for yourself. For example, “post daily” or “post every other day”, or “post once a week”. Whatever you decide, just be consistent with it. Inktober is about growing and improving and forming positive habits, so the more consistent you are, the more you will benefit.
