    How to Use Pomodoro for Writing

    1

    Choose Your Writing Session

    Select a preset based on what you're writing: novels (45 min), blog posts (25 min), or editing (30 min).

    2

    Close Everything Else

    Just you, your writing app, and the timer. No email, no social media, no "research."

    3

    Write Until the Timer Stops

    No editing, no perfectionism. Just write. You can fix it later during an editing session.

    4

    Take Your Break

    Step away from the screen. Stretch, walk, hydrate. Come back refreshed for the next sprint.

    Writing Tips with Pomodoro

    Beat Writer's Block

    Tell yourself "I'll just write for one Pomodoro." Starting is the hard part. Usually, you'll continue past the first session.

    Separate Drafting from Editing

    Use writing sessions for pure drafting. Schedule separate editing sessions later. Trying to do both kills momentum.

    Track Your Word Count

    Note your word count before and after each session. You'll be amazed how much you write in focused 25-45 minute sprints.

    Build a Writing Ritual

    Same time, same music, same timer. Your brain will learn: When the timer starts, words flow.
