Build a timeline for your book, complete with hard deadlines for big milestones and weekly/daily deadlines for small ones to make writing your book easier to manage.

Schedule major milestones on your calendar. Schedule daily writing sessions too. These are the gateway to your published book. Protect those writing sessions with your life.

Passion, enthusiasm and focus are essential, too, so schedule time to revitalize your spirit. Share on X

This can be a “forced” day off, like taking Sundays off.

The Lord gave us a day of rest for a reason. We need it. We need that time to disconnect from the daily pressures of our life and reconnect with why writing this book fills us with joy, expectation and gratitude.

Find support from your family, your friends or your writing community.

Writing Power Hour, a group of passionate writers who get together 6 days per week to write, share our successes and ask for help when we need it is just one of the options available to you.

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 supports this mini-mastermind concept.

“Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.”
