What is Project 52, anyway?

P52 is a chance to clear out those cobwebs in your head and get back to writing (if that’s your thing). Why? Because there is incredible talent everywhere that is being wasted on simple social network status updates. In short: people are becoming lazy at writing good content.

If you don’t have an interest in generating loads of original content that you can share with people, then perhaps this experiment isn’t for you. This site is for bloggers, illustrators, photographers, and many others who want to create more than 140 characters worth of content.

The project was originally started by Anton Peck as a personal quest to write more than a few posts per year. Feel free to read more about his thoughts on it here, where you’ll also spy the genesis of P52 as a more social project.

The (not so) Rules

  1. Although there are rules, there are no rules. Project 52 is for you to do better for yourself. Like a diet plan. You either do it, or you don’t. Don’t come here expecting us to do the work for you, because that’s not going to happen.
  2. Project 52 is not a social network. This is a place of inspiration and hope. A resource of information for you to use that will improve your blogging abilities.
  3. Project 52 will not manage or police your blog for you. We’re not your Mom, even though leaving dirty plates on the table is pretty annoying.

Regarding this Website

Significant portions of this site are powered by ExpressionEngine. The design was a team-effort creation by Jeremy Swinnen and Anton Peck. The layout is happiest in the most recent versions of Safari, Firefox, Opera, or Chrome. Currently, there is a Ruby-on-Rails application being developed by Rizwan Reza for more functionality, but you can’t see that yet.

Obviously, this page is going to grow and evolve as time goes by. We’re always open to hearing your suggestions, compliments, criticisms, and/or advice. If you have something you’d like to share, please head on over to the contact page and draft up an email. Not everybody will get a reply, but it’s guaranteed that your message wil be read.
