Watch as your numbers update in real time based on your writing activity. Set your manuscript goal and see your daily targets adjust accordingly. Some writers use an app on their phone or laptop to monitor their writing sessions. I on the other hand use my brain. On Sundays, I write down what number i should be at each day and use that as my monitoring system. If I go over the allotted time for a day of writing, I adjust accordingly.

Stay focused with a site blocker Don't let distractions get in the way of your writing routine.  Schedule block sessions in advance and monitor your productivity each day.
