Written

This book collects some of the best advice I've ever encountered for constructing a writing habit that actually works. * Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks * This is a fascinating and extremely useful book. I recommend it! * David Quantick, novelist and Emmy Award-winning scriptwriter of Veep, The Thick of It and Avenue 5 * This well-written book on writing well is enormously valuable for anyone wishing to write productively. If you're a writer, first be a reader of this book. * Robert Cialdini, author of Influence and Pre-Suasion * A fun to read and highly informative guide to overcome the most difficult obstacles in writing. * Gabriele Oettingen, author of Rethinking Positive Thinking * What a lovely, friendly book. Made me feel cheerful, buoyant, less alone and keen to get on with my writing. Highly recommended. * Cathy Rentzenbrink, author of Write It All Down * Written lays out the challenges that almost every writer faces and provides real-world antidotes to many of the myths and stories we believe about ourselves and why we can't seem to get our projects finished. This book will help you structure your writing life and how you approach the craft of writing. * Rennie Saunders, founder and CEO of ShutUp&Write! * Two things that I love about this book. First, Bec and Chris don't assume that what works for one famous writer will work for you. Their emphasis is on discovering the best way for each writer to get their writing done. And secondly, this isn't just based on hunches - but on extensive study of how writers write. Highly recommended. * Nigel Warburton, author of A Little History of Philosophy * There's nothing scarier in my work than a blank page, yet nothing more satisfying and exciting than finishing and launching a book. Written holds your hand throughout that entire process. Bec and Chris keep things practical, with an admirable focus on the habit-changes needed to get your words out there . If you want to go from writing to written , then you need this book. * Graham Allcott, founder of Think Productive and author of How to be a Productivity Ninja * This isn't just another productivity book. Most writers have lots of those, but none of them speak to the real causes of why getting on with writing is so hard to do. Written is different: it's rooted not just in the authors' own experience but also in that of the thousands of writers they've worked with over the years. Whatever you write, whatever you struggle with, you'll find real-world solutions here. Warm, wise and practical, it deserves pride of place on your bookshelf. * Alison Jones, host of The Extraordinary Business Book Club podcast and author of Exploratory Writing * Bec and Chris really helped me on my way to publication. Their insights and encyclopaedic knowledge about creative productivity gave me inspiration, support and practical tools to persevere and establish a more mindful writing practice. I'm excited about their book, as it will help so many writers. * Louise Bassett, author of The Hidden Girl *
