My Word Count Benefited Instantly

I kept telling myself that good writing took time and shouldn't be rushed, but really all I was doing was staring at an unfinished page overthinking what to write next.

After putting Chris's methods to use, my word count a day went from 750 - 1000 to over 2000 words, and I spent less time writing! All I did was find a quiet place, press a timer, and suddenly my inner editor was no where to be heard. Sure, the writing that resulted was less than grammatically correct, but it takes all but minutes to go back and edit punctuation and misspelling.

When I compared the writing I did during sprints to when I was taking my sweet time, it was just as good - if not better. The key difference was I had no time to judge myself.

This worked for me - and I can't wait to see how my word count improves in the months to come with this method.

You could probably save a few bucks by googling what word sprints are but I recommend hearing Chris's take on it. His story is interesting, and all too relatable to the aspiring unpublished writer.

Helped me write a bestseller!

This book helped me shift my mindset and find some straightforward habits to write more and meet my deadline. Chris Fox has a no nonsense and kind writing style that I appreciate, too. I’m now moving on to several other book projects, and because of the habits I’m building from reading this book, I’m confident that I can increase my volume as I put the strategies in practice. I’ve read tons of books on writing, but this little gem where’s the key for me during a season where I had a short window of time to finish my work. That book, because of the timing, quickly became a best seller in more than one category.
