Write more books per year?
I used to struggle to stay focused and be productive every day. But after years of researching and experimenting with all different kinds of productivity strategies, techniques and tools, I’ve managed to curate an extensive list of “hacks” that have helped me become a more productive writer.
How productive?
LAST YEAR, I WROTE 4 NOVELS (over 350,000 words) AND A SCREENPLAY...
IN LESS THAN 12 MONTHS!
When I tell people this, they usually say something like...
"How do you find the time???"
But in actuality, it's not about the amount of writing time you have, it's how you use that time.
I WRITE 4+ BOOKS A YEAR...WRITING ONLY 2-3 HOURS A DAY!
In this course, I teach you how to minimize the time you put in, while maximizing what you get out, so you can get the most out of every writing day.
"This course changed my life. I have more than doubled my Average Daily Word Count—some days writing six times what I used to force onto the page each day." - Emily Hainsworth, author of THROUGH TO YOU (Harper Collins)
"This course has transformed my writing and my productivity! - JOANI, UDEMY STUDENT
"I've already increased my daily word count by 200%" - GEORGIA, UDEMY STUDENT
"If you write (or plan to write), get this course" - SCOTT, UDEMY STUDENT
"This is life-changing stuff...I highly recommend this course to even the most seasoned of writers." - ROBIN, UDEMY STUDENT
My name is Jessica Brody and I’m an international bestselling author published by several major publishers like Simon and Schuster, Random House, Macmillan, and Disney Press. I’ve been writing professionally for over 10 years and here’s what I’ve discovered about the creative process:
Our brains are like computers. They can do amazing things but they can also get bogged down by all the various programs we open during the day. With all these other programs eating up RAM in our brains, we barely have any processing power left to do what we writers love to do: write!
Which is why I developed this course: to teach you my tried and true strategies, tips, tools, and techniques for eliminating distractions, freeing up brain processing power, and focusing your attention and energy on what’s most important, so you can get more done, in less time.
I call these strategies: PRODUCTIVITY HACKS. Because similar to how our brain functions like a computer, we can also hack it like a computer. We can apply simple yet effective tricks to BOOST BRAIN FUNCTION, INCREASE FOCUS, BE MORE INSPIRED, and WRITE MORE!
"I noticed an immediate increase in my output the moment I put her hacks to use. Highly recommend." - AMY, UDEMY STUDENT

"Superb." - KIMBERLELY, UDEMY STUDENT
