Address the root causes of perfectionism, procrastination, and self-doubt

Creative demons are often based on negative emotions and inaccurate thoughts, such as “I’ll mess up” or “This book will make or break my entire career.”

To beat them, you have to shift your thinking, so that you acknowledge your ability to tackle challenges and view your struggles more accurately—such as “No one novel will define my entire career”.

Basically, you teach your brain to think more kindly about yourself, your writing, and your struggles.

The nine worksheets in this toolkit help you do that with techniques borrowed from CBT, a scientifically based method of adjusting thought patterns that cause issues.

Start in minutes. See results in weeks.

This toolkit isn’t a long-winded explanation. It’s an action-based fiction writing resource with concise explanations and simple, honest questions that get to the cause of your creative demons.

But this isn’t a quick fix, either. While starting is easy, results will take consistent effort over weeks or months. After all, if beating perfectionism and procrastination were easy, you'd have done it already.

Are you tired of second-guessing every word you write and of scrolling social media when you want to create?

You open your laptop...and immediately pick up your phone to doom scroll instead.

You finally manage to write a sentence, but it's terrible. So, you delete it and try again. It's still not right.

The next day, you don't bother to write at all.

The whole project just feels TOO BIG, too difficult, and too important to risk messing up.

We've all been there, and we learned how to handle it...

Created by USA Today Bestselling authors.

We're a team of neurodivergent authors and editors who found that a lot of writing advice just didn't work for our brains. The commonly taught techniques left us overwhelmed and stuck.

Fed up, we compiled our years of experience to create frameworks, writing templates, and worksheets that actually worked with our busy, loud, often inconsistent minds.

These writing resources eliminate distractions, make organization easy, and focus on clear steps that lead to finished, binge-worthy novels rather than another set of notes you forget about.

Together, we've collectively published more than 50 novels.

FAQ

How can I overcome procrastination as a writer?

Procrastination is not laziness. It's a mental block caused by your subconscious trying to protect you from failure, discomfort, and other negative emotions.

You can beat procrastination by working through these negative feelings, so they become easier to manage and no longer derail you.

The worksheets in this toolkit will help you do that.

Why should I trust you on this?

Each member of our team had to overcome perfectionism, procrastination, and self-doubt before we finished and published our first books.

Even now, with dozens of published novels, those three demons rear their ugly heads, and we have to vanquish them back to the depths of our subconsciouses.

This toolkit is based on our 25+ years of defeating the creative monsters so we could keep writing. The worksheets also draw on the psychology background of a team member and another's experience as a creativity coach and facilitator.

What exactly will I get?

You'll receive a PDF with ten worksheets and instructions for challenging and overcoming your procrastination and perfectionism.

You can print these out, use the PDF with a note-taking app like Goodnotes, or simply write your answers to the prompts in a notebook.

I have ADHD. Will this work for me?

Hi, fellow ND person. Our entire team is ADHD, autistic, and bipolar and these worksheets are based on techniques we have found helpful.

Is this just for writers?

The methods in this toolkit are based on science-backed psychology, so they can work for anyone struggling with procrastination and perfectionism. But the toolkit is geared toward writers. Much of the language and examples won't appeal to a non-writer.
