Zara Keane
I don't have enough writing hours in my schedule to wait for inspiration. If I have a chunk of time set aside to write, I do the following:
1. Make a cup of coffee;
2. Block access to the internet using an app called Freedom;
3. Open Scrivener and set a session target for the number of words I want to write or edit;
4. Fill in a scene plan to stop me wasting time writing nonsense I'll end up deleting later;
5. Start typing!
