Today I'm talking to Aluko Deborah JB about every writer's greatest foe (besides burnout, self-doubt, etc): the rabbit hole of procrastination. Want to know how to beat procrastination and foster consistency instead? You've come to the right place.
Note: we sadly had technical issues when we were recording, so we apologise if this chat sounds a little rushed. We had a lot to cover and were aware of our time limit.

How to Focus on Writing with ADHD with Shane Douglas Keene 33:19

2 years之前33:19

33:19

Today I'm talking to writer and poet Shane Douglas Keene about how you can focus on writing when your ADHD is making it more difficult. Shane's tips from personal experience are: Routine is important. Sitting down to write at the same time every day creates a habit, which may be easier for you to stick to longterm. If you can, have a separate computer just for writing. If you can't, there are programs you can use to block distractions, such as Scrivener's full screen mode. If you realise that you've lost the passion for your project, walk away for a while. You can either work on something else you do feel passionate about or take a break from writing altogether if you need it. Be brave and be transparent with your readers. If your ADHD is slowing your progress, it's okay to be honest about it - plenty of readers and other writers will see themselves in your struggles and sympathise. Alternatively, if you've fallen into a research rabbit hole, consider sharing some of your findings with your readers. To catch up with Shane, check out his Twitter .
