A comprehensive guide to sustainable writing productivity, focusing on leveraging your time effectively while working with your natural resistance to change.
This was a wonderful post! I am putting the finishing touches on a similar article, thinking about the “productivity trap” so many indie authors have fallen into. Every day I see people bragging about how many books they’re publishing or how “fast” they can go but then they’re somehow earning less than ever before. It makes me sad and I hope that more people will embrace this idea of sustainability.
Thank you for sharing the post! The study is highly versatile, but the hard part is the every person eventually has to find their own way, has to sift various approaches and pieces of the pizzle to uncover something that will eventually work exactly for them. And that's not easy. Absolutely worth the grind, though!
I think that’s partially true, but there are a set of things that broadly work and should probably be the basis for your experimentation. People often use that kind of thinking to do widely debunked things that don’t work for anyone. I don’t think that’s a good use of time. You should take things that broadly work and figure out which of them work first, and how to modify them for you because they will get you furthest quickest.

Such a lot to ponder here thank you! I particularly liked your adaptation of the matrix.
Yay!!

A really good advice!
