I find tea is essential fuel for writing! I have a routine of writing first thing when I wake up. I wish I had a van to park up in beautiful places, I’m sure that must add inspiration. Most of my ideas come walking my dog too. Love this. Thanks for sharing! ✨🐶🌱
Lovely piece! Just curious, when you were starting out, did you have a full time job? How did you go about setting aside time for Substack? Would love to hear how you balanced both!
Classical (and neo-classical) music has become a staple part of my day and writing as well. It carries such a natural component of inspiration that really does help romanticize life and fuel creativity. Thanks for sharing your routine!
Thank you, this is really interesting. Often words arrive for me whilst out and about in nature, and sometimes I struggle to remember once I get in front of a computer. I may have to invest in a little notebook! Do you have any tips on how to build an audience please? I’ve only just started on Substack. Thanks and all the best, Dawn.
Thanks so much for sharing. I haven't tried Notion yet, I currently write my blog posts on a google doc then transfer them but will take a look. Totally agree re writing with -walks, teas, cafes are all great for me too.

I've been struggling to find a writing routine as I'm just starting out on Substack, and this was so helpful! Thank you for sharing.
I'm glad you found it useful!
I am not a professional writer but I will say this seems like a very inspiring and good writing plan. 🙋♀️

I had a part time job so it was a bit easier to manage. Maybe I'll write a post about this another time!
So interesting to see your process, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your ideas on this 🧡

I need buckets too. Thanks for all the tips and tricks!

My overall advice always comes back on focusing on making the best content you can and people will find you :)
Thank you, I'll keep at it :-)
I really love glimpses into how other writers gather all of the magic and bring it into a form that makes sense! Thank you for sharing this!

I don't have a writing routine yet, but I love getting a glimpse of yours ❤️ Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your insights, I find them super useful as I’m quite new to this Substack thing.
Thank you for sharing! I was actually thinking about this a few days ago - how you plan and how I could potentially plan my writing in the future.
Hi Molly, great post :) I'd love to try your blogger planner but the link isn't working. Please could you let me know where I can find it - thanks!
