Hey Mur-
Another great episode! I want to share a writing tool that I’ve been using for years, and it hasn’t failed me yet. I built an excel spreadsheet to track my submissions, which that alone doesn’t seem that impressive. However, I added a formula to track days out, and I have organized the spreadsheet to be easily navigable and very comprehensive. Here’s a link to it if anyone wants to try it out:

Hi,
What happened to the download links?
I can’t find anywhere to download the mp3.
Thanks,
Aidan.
Whoops, sorry about that Aidan! Working on upgrades messed me up. Fixed!
I like to keep all my notes on my computer. I don’t usually do an outline for a book unless my idea is so vague I need something to help me flesh it out. I make one document for each book idea and title it thus. So that I can keep track of them all.
