When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing<\/em><\/a> unlocks how timing is a science, not an art. How did you apply what you learned in writing that book to your writing routine and when you write?<\/h3>\n

One of the most important insights from the science of timing is that our cognitive abilities do not remain static over the course of the day. They change \u2014 in predictable and sometimes extreme ways. \u00a0That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to do the right work at the right time. Most of us have a period of the day when we\u2019re highest in vigilance, in our ability to focus deeply and bat away distractions. For me, that peak occurs in the morning \u2014 between about 830 am and Noon. So, on writing days, I isolate and protect that chunk of time. I don\u2019t open my email. I don\u2019t even bring my phone into the office. Instead, I give myself a word count<\/a> \u2014 say, 800 words \u2014 and don\u2019t do anything else until I written that many words. Whenever we sit down to write, the entire universe begins conspiring to distract us. \u00a0That\u2019s why it\u2019s essential to do our writing during the time of day when we\u2019re least distractible and most vigilant.<\/p>\n

Do you have any pre-writing rituals<\/a> that help you get in the zone?<\/h3>\n

Not really. My two go-to pre-writing moves are guzzling some coffee<\/a> and stumbling into my office.<\/p>\n

Anything you do when the writing isn\u2019t coming easy?<\/h3>\n

For me, the writing never comes easy. Never. When it\u2019s especially difficult, sometimes I\u2019ll take a walk. But most times, I\u2019ll just sit there, suffer, write shitty sentences, and hope I can make the next draft less putrid.<\/p>\n

Given your expertise on workplace environments that nurture motivation, creativity, and innovation, what do you think makes for an ideal writing workplace?<\/h3>\n

That depends on the person \u2014 which means that the two most important broad criteria are choice and configurability. Some people enjoy working around other people. Others prefer to be sealed off. Some writers like the ambiance of coffee shops. Others like the serenity of silence. If people can choose \u2014 or configure \u2014 the workspace that\u2019s right for them, that\u2019s the ideal<\/a>. \u00a0As for me, I work alone in a refurbished garage behind my house. The space is silent. But I still often wear earplugs, noise-canceling headphones, or both when I write. I\u2019m not sure what this says about my sociability, but I do my best work when I\u2019m sealed off from the rest of the world.<\/p>\n

Deciding on an idea to pursue writing about can be the most challenging aspect for a writer. How do you come to the point of \u2018this is something I need to write about\u2019 as opposed to \u2018this is something I enjoy reading about\u2019?<\/h3>\n

That\u2019s a tough one. \u00a0But it\u2019s one reason I always write a 30-to-40-page book proposal<\/a> before committing to writing a book. That allows me to test whether this idea is one with which I\u2019d like to go out on a few dates \u2014 or one I want to go steady with and maybe marry. I have several proposals in my files for ideas that I initially thought were great \u2014 but ultimately abandoned because they weren\u2019t strong enough or I didn\u2019t care enough to devote several years of my life to the topic.<\/p>\n

All of your work is very research intensive<\/a>. What is your method for researching and organizing material<\/a> you might want to use for your future writing?<\/h3>\n

I\u2019m a hard-core filer. \u00a0I keep voluminous paper files \u2014 always carefully labeled with my labeler and often encased in a larger Redweld expandable\u00a0folder, which itself has a label. I also rely heavily on Dropbox. I have probably about 200 separate folders in Dropbox and more subfolders than I\u2019m willing to admit.<\/p>\n

Writers have to be master prioritizers \u2014 juggling all sorts of projects and deadlines at the same time. That\u2019s certainly the case for you. Do you have any methods for managing tasks and time to stay productive<\/a> and not let overwhelm sneak in?<\/h3>\n

It can be a struggle. But one secret is knowing and being comfortable with your own preferences. For example, I’m terrible at parallel processing \u2014 at having several projects going at once. I\u2019m much more of a serial processor \u2014 going deep on one and only one project for an extended period and then moving on to the next thing. \u00a0So I try not to commit too much, even if it requires saying no to things that might be interesting. I believe in Peter Drucker\u2019s advice to do first things first and second things not at all.<\/p>\n

What are the best pieces of writing advice<\/a> that you\u2019ve ever received or read?<\/h3>\n

Many years ago, I turned in a draft of a long magazine story. I knew the piece was off, but I couldn\u2019t figure out why. My editor read it, then asked me: \u201cWhat\u2019s the promise you\u2019re making to the reader?\u201d I\u2019d never thought about writing that way \u2014 and it\u2019s something I never stopped thinking about. Some writers might view this approach as too transactional and not sufficiently inspired. But I disagree. \u00a0If somebody takes time from their life to read something I\u2019ve written, that\u2019s a huge privilege. I want to make sure I deliver on the promise.<\/p>\n

What writers and books have had the greatest impact on your writing and thinking?<\/h3>\n

Too many to mention. When I was a kid and obsessed with sports, a librarian directed me to the works of John McPhee<\/a>, who wrote about basketball<\/a> and tennis<\/a> in ways that woke me up and widened my vision. \u00a0Anne Lamott\u2019s\u00a0Bird By Bird<\/em><\/a> made me realize that I wasn\u2019t crazy \u2014 that most writers encountered the same struggles I did. \u00a0Studs Terkel\u2019s Working<\/em><\/a>, another book I read as a kid, got me interested in work and the workplace. Today, there are so many good writers doing such good work \u2014 from narrative nonfiction writers like Michael Lewis<\/a> and David Grann <\/a>to novelists like Margaret Atwood<\/a> and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie<\/a> to dozens and dozens more \u2014 that I try to learn something from every author I read.<\/p>\n
