I devised a tool today to help me stay focused on writing.
It’s a script on my work computer that runs every 30 minutes. Here’s how it works…
Every 30 minutes, I get the following prompt
If I don’t have time to mess with it, I simply click “No”
If I click “Yes,” my writing file appears, and the clock starts ticking. I have 60 seconds to write as much as I can think of. It can be a sentence, a phrase, a description… Anything that moves the story forward.
After 60 seconds, my work is saved and the window closes.
And that’s it! Simple, yes, but it’s fun.
