The Writing Game

Show Procrastination Who's Boss

Aug 11, 2024

Hey there,

If you aren't familiar, we have another paid newsletter for storytellers called Fiction Writing With AI.

And last week, we rolled out a fun new product called “The Writing Game."

We thought it was worth sharing with you because one of the biggest struggles ALL writers (fiction or non-fiction) face is showing up to write. Writers love to trick themselves into not writing with a good old, “I’ll do that tomorrow…when I feel like it” excuse.

But, here’s a dirty little secret.

You can pull the wool over Procrastination’s eyes with a touch of reverse psychology, called Rewards.

Rewards tap into your brain's natural love for instant gratification—just like procrastination. But, instead of the gratification of an extra hour of Netflix, they give you that extra push to get started. And once you do, the satisfaction of earning something keeps you going. It’s a fun way to trick your brain into staying motivated.

Which is why we created The Writing Game.

Gamify Your Daily Writing Habit

Whether you’re writing your memoir, working on a non-fiction book, or simply working on your next Substack newsletter, the Writing Game helps you track your daily writing habit.

Set your Sacred Hours
Show up and write
Track your time

Watch your Digital Library grow every day while you show Procrastination who's boss.

While the Writing Game uses fiction terms, the real benefit is how it keeps you showing up every day. Watching your writing hours add up gives you a great sense of progress, like a built-in dopamine hit.

Even if you’re not into world-building or fiction, this app can make any type of writing more rewarding.

It’s like your personal writing RPG.

Now, if you’re curious to see how it can fit into your writing routine, The Writing Game is available for $49. It’s a simple tool with a big impact, designed to make your writing habit stick—no matter what you’re working on.

But this price won’t last forever. So, if you’ve been looking for a nudge to start writing more consistently, this might be it.
