The writing process can differ greatly from writer to writer, but one thing that author and book coach C.R. Rowenson knows for sure, is that a little planning and organization can go a long way in helping writers accomplish their goals. At a minimum, he recommends writing down some key plot points or moments in your story that excite you the most. These will keep you motivated when facing writer's block, self-doubt, or uncertainty. He also recommends knowing how productive you are as a writer. You need to understand your writing style and goals before you can try to track any progress or set deadlines.
