Time to Make a Plan: An Interview with Susan May Warren

EPISODE 218I

Susan May Warren is back with us today to show us her new 2021 My Brilliant Writing Planner! This is my favorite planner! And this year you have four styles (and price points) to choose from.

Susie May and I also talk about all kinds of time and energy management tips from our own experience and our years of teaching on that topic for writers. Whether you're a plotter or a pantser, you'll find great ideas for finishing this year strong and starting next year with a bang.

If you already have a planner or journal you love, great. You may find some of our tips will help you get even more from it. If you haven't found something that really works for you yet, consider giving My Brilliant Writing Planner a try. One of the best things about it is that it incorporates your whole life, not just your writing.

You can track your writing and plan your books for the year, but you can also plan your meals, track your exercise and water intake, appointments, and all the other parts of your life. (I even keep track of when I water my plants here and only one plant has died!) Use it to plan and then follow through, or use it to track what you've accomplished and how long things take you (to finish writing a book, for instance). Check out the website to see what the inside pages look like.

If you're purchasing from outside the United States, be sure to scroll down and click on International Buyer. There's also a video of the launch party right above that link that shows you all four versions of the planner so you can decide which one you like the best.

Susie May and I hope this episode gives you some added energy to figure out how to get your books written because, as she loves to say, your story matters! Follow Susie May and find out more about all of her books on her website, http://www.susanmaywarren.com/.
