How to make a writing schedule

Writing Schedules. The dreaded schedule, something to tie us down and shoo all fun from our lives...right? Well, not the way I see it. I really enjoy having my writing schedule for many reasons:

1) It creates a structured environment so you don't need to force yourself to sit down in front of your writing app (should be Scrivener) every day. You just automatically do it without much fuss.

2) Having the schedule and sticking to it takes away any feelings of guilt that may occur during the day. When you stick to your schedule you are achieving your daily writing goals and you deserve a break!

3) You can write so much faster than expected. I went from believing a first draft took a year to write, and with my chosen writing schedule my first draft is going to take one and a half months.

4) My favourite reason is that you are achieving your goals every day and the sense of accomplishment that comes along with that is one everyone should experience!
