A Most Productive Read
As I am in the research phase of my first book, I felt it vital that I take a break from that and reassess what it is I’m doing. And this book help me successfully do that. The day I took to read and meditate on the author`s words have been more productive than a day of unimpeded work on my book. A must read for all modern day aspiring authors.

Challenging Topic for Creatives
If you struggle to meet deadlines, schedule creative work and bring projects to a completion, this book will help. I recommend all of Joanna Penn’s books on writing, which are a valuable resource for writers.

Worth tour time
Another Joanna Penn goodie added to my new writer’s collection of insights, experience and encouragement. Straight forward language, stressing personal accountability, with empathy and supportive information with lots of good follow up links to follow up

It’s the little things
Joanna Penn is helpful and cares to see other authors succeed in author entrepreneurship. She is a true blessing for novice, intermediate and professional indie authors because this book helps authors to remember that remaining productive is a mindset.

Noob Inspired
Loved stated concepts surrounding personal productivity. Familiar with many. Surprisingly, going deeper into oneâs âwhyâ, key for me. Quite a release of inspirational energy. So fortuitous with end of 2019 and the start of a new decade. TY

Great advice all around!!
Bought a digital copy. Massive amount of great advice included in all the important areas authors need to pay attention to, some areas that authors sometimes disregard. Also very motivating. Loved it!

Great advice!
The section on listing your “to do’s” and deciding which are a priority and can move you closer to your writer goals really resonated with me.

Quick and informative
This was a quick read full of ideas on productivity. If you are an author and trying to hone in on your craft, read this book.

Joanna Penn is a highly influential voice in the indie publishing world. She was one of the first writers to share her wealth of knowledge via a blog and a podcast and, in addition to her own fiction, publishes non-fiction books for authors. Productivity for Authors is her tenth book for writers, carrying on her long-time tradition of offering straightforward advice in a short-ish, easy-to-digest format.Many writers struggle with finding the time to write, balancing their writing time with admin and marketing time, and reaching their writing goals. (Hey, me too!) Productivity for Authors dives deep into different methods authors can use to overcome all these challenges and more. She also goes into topics like co-writing, setting boundaries, dictation, outsourcing, and productivity tools. (I wish dictation was an option for me but I write far better than I speak.)As an indie author myself who balances a full-time job, blogging, and writing, I found a few helpful tidbits in here but nothing that really inspired me to change up my practices that much. If youâve read other writing productivity books, thereâs no big reveal like âthis is the secret to productivity.â Thatâs because when it comes to book writing, there isnât one. The biggest and most repeated point in this book is: just do the work and stop making excuses. And Penn is absolutely right about that.If youâre a new writer looking for the basics, this book is a great place to start.

Io la adoro, ascolto sempre il suo podcast e i suoi consigli sono ottimi. Questo libro non svela chissà quale segreto misterioso, ma è un piacevole approfondimento su come essere produttivi in modo migliore.

Lo cierto es que tenÃa muchas expectativas, pero en este libro no encuentras ningún método que no haya aparecido en otros tÃtulos sobre productividad (tampoco es que se pueda inventar la rueda a estas alturas, desde luego). Se lee muy bien y hay algunos puntos muy interesantes, sin embargo me molesta mucho que remita a otros libros suyos sin pudor alguno. Es totalmente lÃcito y correcto, solo que no me gusta. En cualquier caso, si no has leÃdo nada sobre el tema, es un excelente punto de partida.

No matter what stage you are at your writing, this sensible, no nonsense guide to making the most of the time that you have will be invaluable. Joanna Penn is one of the most trusted voices in this arena and the advice that she gives is always practical, measured and born from her own experience. She doesn’t pull any punches either – ultimately how productive you are is down to you. But if you are finding it tricky then there are worse places to start than this book.

This book was fantastic. I had to make notes as I went along so I didnât miss anything. I liked that Joanna was very direct. She covered such a multitude of areas, it was incredible. Definitely implementing some of these strategies from today and others down the line.
