Starting this month, the second week of every month is our Silent Sprint week. Your only job today: 1. Choose one writing target: a scene – 1–3 pages – outline – or 30–60 mins of focused writing 2. Write silently. No editing. No multitasking. 3. When you’re done, come back and post ONE sentence only: “Today I worked on ___.” That’s it. Short. Simple. Tomorrow we’ll repeat this once more and lock in momentum.

* Today’s participants hit their writing goals. If you want to see progress on your projects head over to the calendar. Add our next, Silent Writing Session to your schedule.

The first week of February is done. This is your moment to refocus. Before the month moves any faster, in the comments, share: - One thing you moved forward this week (progress counts, even if it was small) - One thing you need clarity or guidance on in your script or production When you have direction, you stop spinning your wheels and start making real progress. That’s exactly what Story Craft coaching is for—clear next steps. Focused feedback. Accountability that keeps you moving. If you’re ready to stop wasting time and start making progress, head to the Classroom and sign up for Coaching. Let’s make February count -Mel
