Time Management for Writers
Having Trouble Finding
Time to Write Your Book?
Feel Like the Road
Will Never End?
No Worries!
We've Got Some Writing Tips for You
STEP # 1
Know Your Most Productive Time
When Are You Least Stressed ?
Feel Most Motivated to Work?
Early Morning? Late?
Find Your Ideal Time, then
GUARD IT with everything you
have.
STEP # 2
Disconnect Social Media
Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest,
Instagram, and More...
They're good things, but not
when you need to be writing.
STEP # 3
Keep a Notebook Handy
Your brain will want to think of
other things. When you need to
focus on finishing a chapter,
you will suddenly get other
ideas for new books, new
series.
Keep a notepad nearby and
write down these ideas, then
return to writing.
STEP # 4
Use a Timer
Buy an Egg Timer, Alarm Clock,
or Use a Pomodoro App on Your
Phone.
Google Pomodoro and Time
Management Techniques for
Additional Information.
STEP # 5
Reward Yourself When Done
Be Productive, then Relax.
Write for 30 minutes, then
take a 5-minute walk.
Then write another 30
minutes.
STEP # 6 KEEP WRITING!
