Prioritize your creative writing life. This A5 (5.85 x 8.51 inch) planner was created for the writer who wants to carry one journal for their project planning, quarterly goals, habit tracking, monthly / weekly planning, and more. This is a hefty planner and she means business. I've taken feedback from years of producing journals for writers and authors, combining everything into this one-stop product.
This is an A5 journal with custom-written spreads to help brainstorm your author brand, track your writing contacts and website logins, world build, create character profiles, track your business expenses, focus on writer self-care, and more.
THIS JOURNAL IS FOR YOU IF
1. You are a fiction author planning or writing your next novel (Preptober or NaNoWriMo anyone??).
2. You are a fiction author who loves bullet journal techniques to organize your writing.
3. You are a fiction author who loves prepared systems.
THIS JOURNAL IS NOT FOR YOU IF
1. You write non-fiction.
2. You want a journal with a lot of blank pages and no structure.
Details
The interior pages are numbered and lined. The writing experience is like writing on typical laser printer sheet of paper. You are encouraged to perform your own pen tests to ensure you avoid bleed, ghosting, or feathering if these things concern you; ballpoint pens are great on this paper.
