Review: Great coaching that switched me from reading novels, and back to completing one!

Some people are born procrastinators, but I am not.  I do necessary and daily tasks as though tomorrow may never come. Pat on my back. EXCEPT when it comes to personal writing. I could not pinpoint my problem, but I was in a slump when I read this book. And although I must be honest and say I have not written as many words daily as intended, I am sitting down to write every single day since I read Write Fast, Beat Procrastination - Mile-High Word-Count & Writing Productivity: 5000+ Words-a-Day, Every Day.I am now falling back on many of Rick Smith's logical concepts that make it easier for me to focus on writing. Using the five day work week system is fabulous. Find the system that works for you, and get back to the keyboard. You'll soon be smiling at your output. Good advice, easily applied, and results driven. My timer was previously used to alert me to jump off Facebook, which is a time cruncher.  Now it's being used as one of my new writing methods. And, my five minute breaks are used to exercise. Lunch is still catch as you can, b/c sometimes stopping when a character is eager to keep the storyline going, is not a good time to break for lunch.  Your body won't let you starve, and inspiration makes the writer's brain super happy.I'm very close to my goal of 5,000 words a day (I'm bad about over-editing, which delays the process) and know soon I won't just reach it, but will surpass it.  My productivity is up, and my goal of publishing in September looks highly reachable.
