I love writing but it seemed to be a chore for the longest time. I would get delayed and would release ‘when it’s ready’. Perhaps the greatest change I’ve made so far is making a full schedule for my work. I post on Reminders for my production work every day. I have my months planned on promotions and work, with a deadline. I use Post It app to keep track of my upcoming work. And now I’m booked for the next 6 years. Already I’m ahead on audio production, and in good pace with my next writing project. So for new comers and those who are looking for a way to succeed. KEEP. A. SCHEDULE.

Yes! This is super important for this line of work. We have gone through many different variations of scheduling, including block schedules, Trello, Asana, Google calendar, and old fashioned whiteboard notes. At the moment we are utilizing Asana for all of our main work, and we’ve been able to stay on track well. One thing I find difficult is trying to balance various platforms. We might want to use something for storyboards, then move to frame io for rough cut notes, and Google for documents. And so far having a hub like Asana (or trello, etc) has been good to us.
It's so true. You have to have a schedule and hold yourself accountable. Adding one more resource to Sam's list: Evernote.
Amanda, I’ve been trying to incorporate a note system into my routine. How do you like Evernote? Would love to hear how people use it
