The market is crowded, and it's hard to know what to do if you're a writer right now. Everyone is looking for an edge...to be better or faster. I want to help you find a way to be both of those things. Look inside to find out if this book is right for you. If you like what you see, then come with me and let's figure out this journey together. There's good news and bad news inside, and I want you to be as equipped as you can be.

There are only, in my humble opinion, two kinds of readers: readers who love your books and readers who don’t know they love your books yet. But how do you reach those readers in the second category, no matter what kind of writer you are? The answer to that question is...universal fantasy. Universal fantasy is why my sales tripled when I “accidentally” wrote three books that landed in the Amazon Top 100. Universal fantasy is why some authors get gobs of gushing reviews and some authors who write “way better” get crickets.

It's every novelist's greatest fear: pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into writing hundreds of pages only to realize that their story has no sense of urgency, no internal logic, and so is a page-one rewrite. The prevailing wisdom in the writing community is that there are just two ways around this problem: pantsing (winging it) and plotting (focusing on the external plot).

What makes a romance novel a romance? Writing a well-structured romance isn't the same as writing any other genre - something the popular novel and screenwriting guides don't address. The romance arc is made up of its own story beats. Told in conversational (and often irreverent) prose, Romancing the Beat is like sitting down to coffee with romance editor and author Gwen Hayes while she explains story structure - the way she does with her clients, some of whom are regular inhabitants of the best-seller lists.

Publisher's summary
I know what you’re feeling right now....
Chances are good that if you clicked on this title, you’re confused, frustrated, overwhelmed...maybe even angry.
Not because I know something about you personally. Not because I’m spying on you or because I’ve reprogrammed your Alexa or Siri to dictate your conversations to me and keep them on my hard drive. No. I know what you’re feeling because it’s the same thing we’re all feeling right now.
How do I know this?
Because I have coached thousands of writers. Six- and seven-figure authors, major award winners, midlisters, and new authors alike. And there are patterns to what writers think and feel about our careers and our books. Those patterns are why I’m here writing to you.
If you are overwhelmed, tired, frustrated with your career or your sales...if you’re stuck or stalled...come and join me here, and we’ll talk about why.
Why is key.
We’ve got this. It’s tackle-able. Let’s get you out of this pit.

In fact, How to Get Sh*t Done will teach you how to zero in on the three areas of your life where you want to excel, and then it will show you how to offload, outsource, or just stop giving a damn about the rest. In How to Get Sh*t Done she shows how even the most perfectionistic among us can tap in to our inner free spirit and learn to feel like badasses rather than drudges.

Finally, in the first productivity book by a woman in a decade, Erin Falconer will show you how to do less - a lot less. In fact, How to Get Sh*t Done will teach you how to zero in on the three areas of your life where you want to excel, and then it will show you how to offload, outsource, or just stop giving a damn about the rest. In How to Get Sh*t Done she shows how even the most perfectionistic among us can tap in to our inner free spirit and learn to feel like badasses rather than drudges.

I cannot recall the last time I read/listened to a book in one sitting — possibly never — but I just did it with this one. Highly intelligent, brave, and yes, upbeat. It may have saved me from the dreaded state of burnout. Thanks, Becca.

Excellent book!
Becca puts it down when it comes to burn out and made me realize just how burned out I had become in my job as a news reporter. Because of this book and another one by her, I have made the hard decisions and I’ve started my author business!! Thank you, Becca!
