A powerful book about creating a customized weekly writing routine that puts you back in control of your writing.
It's time to stop struggling to stay focused, to set goals, or to write consistently. It's time for a new weekly writing routine.
Routines help writers by making it easier, more enjoyable, and more rewarding to sit down and write. Look at any productive author and you will see someone with a rock-solid writing routine.
Stop yelling at yourself to "be more productive" or "just get the writing done." Instead, use this practical workbook to:
- Run a comprehensive audit of your existing writing routine
- Develop your writing goals
- Design a new weekly writing routine that fits your working style
- Implement, revise, and cement your new routine
This workbook is a companion to The 12 Week Year for Writers, a proven system for managing your writing. The workbook introduces the six most important elements of a healthy and productive writing routine:
- Scheduling
- Planning
- Preparation
- Showing Up
- Focus
- Accountability
When you learn how to use each of these to your advantage, you will find yourself showing up for every writing session, you will get into flow more quickly and get distracted less often. You will make plans, hit your goals, and get more writing done, with more enjoyment, than ever before.

As the founder of Get Your Writing Done and author of The 12 Week Year for Writers, my mission is to help people reach their goals by helping them to become the most productive writers they can be.I have spent more than 20 years using the 12 Week Year to manage my own writing. I have used the system to publish seven books and edited volumes, a host of academic articles and book chapters, and scores of op-eds and commentaries. My work has been published in outlets such as the Atlantic, Washington Post, Foreign Policy, Philadelphia Inquirer, and Detroit News, among others. I received my Ph.D. in political science from M.I.T. and left my post as Associate Professor at George Mason University in 2022 to live the entrepreneurial life. I live near the beach in North Carolina with my wife and two naughty dogs.
