i love using pomodoro style sessions to help me get started and tell myself to focus for 25-40 mins and then am always surprised how much gets done in that time!
BOOKMARKED omg this is solid gold. "Adding friction" by leaving my phone in another room is definitely a technique I use to stop myself from scrolling instead of writing!
Okay wow as someone who stopped writing to go on substack this morning I think this article was made for me. You’re so wise! I’ll definitely be using these techniques.
Love what you pointed out about not googling details while you’re writing. As someone with suspected adhd, the simple act of looking up a name for a character can take me down some serious rabbit holes. The same goes for descriptions. I just write (add description) now, especially on early drafts.
Love this! My favourite was a different profile on your computer what a smart idea 💡 👌
It’s helped so much honestly!

I’m so glad you think so!! ☺️ugh yes I’ve recently started leaving my phone in the kitchen while I’m in my office and it helps so much!
