Hey writer,
It’s January—which means every fiction writer on the planet is either:
- Setting loosely-planned writing goals they’ll abandon by March, or
- Avoiding goal-setting entirely because it feels overwhelming and pointless
I used to be both of those writers.
But now, instead of writing a glorified to-do list, full of arbitrary goals that are unrealistic and/or impossible to measure, I reverse engineer my daily routine from a big-picture vision.
Fiction writers need a multi-faceted approach to goal-setting—one that honors the psychological and intuitive aspects of the work, not just the word counts and deadlines.
That’s why I created the Ultimate Author Planner.
It’s not just another productivity worksheet. It walks you through:
- Your Writer Manifesto — Connecting to your deeper purpose (because that’s what keeps you writing on the hard days)
- A Chance to Discover Your Writer Archetype — Understanding how you naturally approach your work (so you stop trying to fit into a box)
- Your Vision of Success — Defining what “making it” actually means to you (it’s probably not what you think it is)
- The 9 Steps to Building Yourself as an Author — Breaking down the journey from where you are now to where you want to be
- 5-Year, Yearly, Quarterly, Monthly, Weekly, and Daily Planning Pages — Because big dreams need small, daily steps that lead to real progress

I’m hosting a live Zoom planning session Monday, January 12th at 11am EST.
You’ll get clarity on your 2026 goals while connecting with other fiction writers. You will leave feeling excited about 2026 because you finally have a roadmap you know you can follow, one that is aligned with your values and vision.
Just click here to send me an email and say “I’m in!” to get your free spot for the live planning session on Monday, January 12th at 11am EST.
Let’s make 2026 the year you bring all your stalled projects to life and evolve into the author you were meant to be.
Until then, feel free to leave a comment with any questions you have about the planner. I would love to hear about your writing goals.
