The need to write a long-form project, such as a book, thesis or dissertation freaks out many people. The project is so big! Their minds spin with questions such as:

• Where do I get started?
• How much research do I need to do?
• How much time should I spend writing every day?
• How can I stop procrastinating
• How am I going to maintain the quality?
• Academics: Will my supervisor accept this work?
• Book authors: How can I ever find an agent or publisher? Or, should I self-publish?

Stop! Take a deep breath and make a plan to approach the project in a calm and sensible way. Get it Done is a five-year time-tested program that can help give you a sense of order. Starting in 2013 Daphne has worked with a small group of writers helping them complete their books, theses and dissertations.

The heart of the program is its accountability system: you need to report your achievements to the group, five days a week for three months. People are not automatically accepted into the group; it’s necessary to apply.
