Happy New Year to you lovely writers and friends. Here’s a short video to help you be more productive in 2020, based on what others say works and what I know. Please do add any tips you have too, in the comments.

If you write books of any description, then you may want to join this Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/20Booksto50k/ which is full of tips for ultra fast writing.

This year I’ve been fired up by a writing exercise I saw on Twitter, where you ask yourself : How will my year look? sound? smell? What color will it be? What object/experience will it most ressemble?

However yours reveals itself, may 2020  bring you joy, peace and the words to express these!
