\n

When<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0where<\/a>\u00a0do you like to write? Are you the\u00a0same-thing-every-day kind of writer<\/a>\u00a0or can you write anytime, anywhere?<\/h3>\n

I like to write wherever and whenever I can. I travel a fair amount for work, so sometimes I write on planes, in airports, or in hotel rooms.<\/p>\n

I live on a sailboat in the Florida Keys most of the year. I\u2019ve written two of my books from my boat.<\/p>\n

Do you have any\u00a0pre-writing rituals<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0habits<\/a>\u00a0before you sit down to write?<\/h3>\n

I don\u2019t. I just sit down and start typing.<\/p>\n

Do you struggle at all with that dreaded enemy of writing: writer\u2019s block<\/a>? Do you think such a thing exists?<\/h3>\n

Fortunately, I don\u2019t ever get writer\u2019s block. I feel like I have more ideas than I can type.<\/p>\n

I give a lot of talks and fielding questions from the audience always gives me new ideas. I write a lot of articles, which generate conversations on social media. And many of the chapters of my books come from those articles.<\/p>\n

I know a lot of people get writer\u2019s block<\/a> and I actually think I would if I wrote fiction books. But non-fiction seems limitless to me. There are always so many things to write about that I am never short on ideas.<\/p>\n

How do you judge a productive writing day<\/a> or an unproductive day? What\u2019s the sign of a good day for you?<\/h3>\n

I usually have a goal for myself and the goal varies. I might want to write a 2,000 word article. Or, I might aim to write 3,000 words in a book. It all depends.<\/p>\n

But word count<\/a> isn’t necessarily the hallmark of productivity. Writing 2,000 sloppy words means I\u2019ll waste a lot of time editing<\/a>. But, 500 well-researched words might really jumpstart a chapter. So I always think about what I want to accomplish the following day and I set a goal for myself the evening before.<\/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 so to not let overwhelm sneak in?<\/h3>\n

I still keep a written calendar to help me track my projects. I write for several different publications and they all have certain deadlines that I want to make.<\/p>\n

So I set weekly tasks for myself to ensure I\u2019ll get everything done by the end of each month. I set aside some time for social media and interviews and other things to promote my work, but I want the bulk of my time spent creating new content.<\/p>\n

That requires me to set clear limits and I try to say no to more things than I say yes to these days. That helps me stay on task and manage my time better.<\/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 want to write about\u2019? Are there habits or daily tricks you use to think about article and book ideas?<\/h3>\n

I like to share my latest thoughts or ideas on social media as a way to begin to test them. If people respond well to my social media posts, I might write an article about it. If people respond well to the article, I know I\u2019ve got something that could turn into a chapter of a book, or even a book on its own.<\/p>\n

In addition to your three books<\/a>, you are also a regular columnist for Forbes, Inc., and Psychology Today. Do you find that your routine and process differs between your short-form work versus your longer form books?<\/h3>\n

My writing career began as a columnist where I wrote articles in the 600 word range. So when I got a book deal, I looked at each chapter almost like a series of short articles. That helped me manage my time and it made a big task seem manageable (a strategy I often teach therapy clients).<\/p>\n

When I\u2019m writing a book, I break my time down into three segments\u2014researching<\/a>, writing<\/a>, and editing<\/a>. I\u2019ll start with one day of research. The next day, I\u2019ll write a chapter. The third day, I\u2019ll edit it. Then, I move on. Setting those time limits prevents me from spending weeks researching one topic or from second-guessing my writing too much. Those self-imposed deadlines give me enough time to do a good job without allowing me to be a perfectionist.<\/p>\n

All of your work is impressively and meticulously researched. What is your process for collecting and organizing material<\/a> you might want to use in your writing?<\/h3>\n

When I wrote my first book, I wasn\u2019t as organized as I wanted to be. I learned quickly that it\u2019s important to take good notes and keep careful track of sources.<\/p>\n

I am a college professor so I have access to many online databases. I research topics I want to write about and take my time examining the studies.<\/p>\n

I keep a document with links to all the articles I might refer to with a quick note about what the study concluded. Then, when I write the chapter, I have the information I need to back up my main points.<\/p>\n

What\u00a0books<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0writers<\/a>\u00a0have most influenced the way you think and the way you write?<\/h3>\n

I\u2019m a recent fan of Greg McKeown\u2019s book, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less<\/a><\/em>. It was a great reminder that doing less can be the key to staying productive.<\/p>\n
