This is RIGHT where I'm at. Been in the in between of moving, as well, up till last week and realized I was sick from mold where we were staying. Now trying to get healthy again, but unexpected anxiety brought on by the mold has me fighting to get back into writing regularly. This video came just in time to inspire me to find a fun way to get back into it! Thank you so much ❤️

Yes! A new fresh start is so important to me. That’s why I prefer half year planners because I get a refresh half way thru the year even if everything is working.

I just checked my email and immediately made my way over to check out this video, thanks for sharing! I have used my B6 Stalogy for journaling and routines, and I have tried to get it to be more decorative, but sometimes I just need to write things down quickly. I love this mix of journaling and also decorative elements and I see it can be used for plotting out a novel too! When I tell myself it doesn't have to be perfect I actually can set one up.

I love how you are re-purposing things you already have and using stationery/papercrafting supplies to customize and decorate. No matter what you use your notebooks for, it is always more fun to use something that is fun to look at and filled with your favorite things! Hope the writing re-set goes well!

Sarra, I have to say: I am relieved to hear that other authors are struggling to write consistently and it's not just me. I finished and published the last of my four-book YA series, which I love dearly, and immediately plotted out and began writing the spinoff series. I got about 25K words in and began experiencing extreme burnout. So much so I quit, cold-turkey. If I've written, it's been little things here and there, fanfic and such, just because. Seeing and hearing you work to spark that fire in your own writing process is the inspiration I didn't know I needed. So, thank you. I love the idea of trying something new to build the excitement and joy of writing again.

Love this notebook setup, I hope this sparks the excitement and creativity you've been searching for! I've been eagerly awaiting writer reset. I use a separate leuchtturm A5 notebook for each book I work on. But it encompasses everything: planning, essential crafting notes, plotting and outlining, character arcs/info, drafting and sprint tracking, drafting notes, read-through notes, revision notes, everything! And I find I that all this uses up more of the notebook than I thought it would. Now, if I could just finish a book lol

Woohoo! I love this! I would also love to get a more in-depth look at how you use your plot tracker in your notebook. Is it set up the same way as your plotting wall? Do they function basically the same? Also, do you find that you have enough room for your plot whatnots on there or do you ever have to branch out to more pages? Or do you just use page flags on those pages? So many questions!
