Hello Writer - this sound familiar?

You really want to write but somehow you never get round to properly starting...

Or maybe you start just fine then lose motivation and struggle to finish.

I hear you, Writer, because I've been you.

Somehow another year rolls by and you're still not where you want to be.

I wrote this book to help you figure out where you want to be, the steps you need to take to get there - and what's getting in your way.

"Finding a way to get unstuck had been at the forefront of my mind and I'd purchased a few other books on the subject. The Productive Writer Guidebook was the only one that resonated and got me over the hump."

Amber Mathias

The Productive Writer Guidebook is an insightful, interactive book that helps you work through your priorities, quit procrastinating and build better writing habits - AND most importantly, figure out how to get out of your own way.

" I recently attended Kathryn's Productive Writer live workshop and it helped me so much! Her no nonsense teaching style cut straight through my writing problems with clear, achievable steps I can use to become a more productive and successful writer." - Kristina Hard - novelist & publicist.
