1.Pomodoro by Numbers

Have you used the pomodoro technique to write?

Developed in the late 1980s by Francesco Cirillo, the technique boosts productivity with intervals of 25 minutes focused sessions, and 5 minutes break time.

We’ve decided to spruce things up a bit with our coloring worksheets. Instead of a 5 minute break, you can color the page when you’re done with your 25 minutes of writing. We thought this would be a fun way to spice writing up by targeting reward systems.

3. Book Cover Formatting Tools
