I cracked my code (you can too) 🔓

If you’re a writer who hasn’t cracked your code, you’re not alone. It’s true for most writers.

You need to identify your own unique combination of conditions, rituals, and triggers that opens the writing faucet and lets the words flow.

Mine?

  • Obvi, it starts with coffee, tea, and water at my desk...
  • Two Pomodoros (25 min each, based on The Pomodoro Technique)
  • Music playing (always)
  • Read first, write second
  • 4:30-8:00 AM (before the world wakes up)

When I honor my code? Those 1,000 words pour out effortlessly, and it is so fun!

When I stray? It feels like pulling teeth! I struggle, question my life choices, and I won't confirm if I'm grouchy or not (you be the judge).

Your code will be different. Maybe you:

  • Write best at midnight in your pajamas
  • Need a 10-minute walk first
  • Thrive in a coffee shop (or several)
  • Write in sprints after a workout

I don't want you to copy mine, I really want you to discover yours.

​There Is No Such Thing as Writer's Block shows you exactly how to:

🔍 Identify what works for you (own it!)

📝 Create your Action Signals List (like Pavlov's bell, only for you and your writing), which allows you to ...

⚡ Turn your writing switch to "ON" anytime, anywhere, and

🚀 Exponentially multiply your word count

Plus, when you have those days the words don't flow, what to do instead of just calling it "writer's block."

Here's my promise: If you read this book and do the exercises, you'll never look at a blank page the same way again.

Reading time: 26 seconds Writing is solo sport, kinda like marathon running. You sit. You type. You stare at the screen. Alone. I think that's one reason we feel like we're "blocked," the isolation doesn't lend itself to circulation (especially not of words). When I first started writing, I did not fancy myself a writer and didn't know there were other writes--just like me--trying to figure it all out. Man, was I excited to find them! (You know who you are!) I had a picture of what real...

There Is No Such Thing as Writer's Block

Reading time: 26 seconds Want to know a secret? When I sit down to write, I'm not always "Honorée, tired human, multiple business owner, and dog servant, who didn't sleep great and has 47 things on her to-do list." Sometimes, I'm H-Money—my fierce, focused, word-slinging alter ego who doesn't have time for excuses. I know, it sounds ridiculous. But it works, and here's why: When you create an alter ego, you're essentially becoming your future self in that moment. You don't have to wait until...

There Is No Such Thing as Writer's Block

Reading time: 26 seconds To the question, "Honorée, I'd love to write a book, but between my full-time job, kids, and everything else ... where would I find the time?" My response is: "Do you have 15 minutes?" If the answer is, "Yes," then you have time to write a book. It'll take the better part of a year, but you can do it! Here's the math: 15 minutes a day x 5 days/week x 48 weeks in a year = 250 words (totally doable!) = 1,250 words per week = 60,000 words in a year That's a (very long)...
