Ever feel restless, unfocused, or unable to find a rhythm while you write? Try writing in quick sprints!
Set a timer for ~15 minutes and focus only on drafting/editing for that time. When the timer goes off, take a break or reset the timer and go again.
Why? Giving yourself a dedicated (optional) stop time can help your mind to release any resistance to focusing on a tough writing day. Short bursts make it even easier!
And if at the end of those 15 minutes you feel that writing energy coming back, you can opt for another sprint, and another, and another.
It’s up to you.
