If you know anything about me, and my writing, then you know I'm NOT and I'll repeat most definitely NOT a Planner. I'm a Pantser, through and through. I sit with barely an idea (my biggest challenge) and out comes characters, then a story, then a book.
So why then, did I want a planner? Good question! Mainly because I *DO* like tracking things that I do accomplish, such as word counts, and once my story's going, I *DO* develop things further.
In an endevour to have better time management, I set out to find a planner, but none I found suited my needs. I wanted a planner for my writing, not for life, because I don't plan things in life (I live a dull and quiet one). There are only a couple writing related ones, and they were boring.
I ended up hand writing my own and what I'd put into one given the chance to have my own. Then I thought, why not just have it and make it myself? I'm good with Photoshop. Thus, The Erotic Writer's Planner was born.
Why Erotic Writers? Because, as I said, there are (albeit only a few) writer's planners out there. Simple, yes, and not many, but they exist. I write Erotica (and more, but I started off an erotica writer) and as such, thought catering to other erotica writers was the way to go. How could I do that? By incooperating sexy, tasteful, NSFW images. In this edition (Vol 1, 2021) the images are all of the female form. If this planner gains traction, and there's demand for it, next year can include other images. As this project was last minute (as in I came up with the idea after the holidays of 2020, but before the new year) I decided to do the planner I wanted, and then just release it to the void to see if anyone else wanted it.
In The Erotic Writer's Planner, you'll find 200 pages to fit your Planning or Pantser needs.
Each Month Includes:
- Blank Calendar*
- Writing Goals
- Word Count Tracker
- Time Tracker (for Edits or other misc that isn't word count)
- And More
*Note - though the months are blank, the 4th, 7th, and 11th month have spots for Camp NaNo and NaNoWriMo respectively. Otherwise, each is blank and can be used as needed.
Non Month Specific Includes:
- Beta / ARC Reader Tracking
- Project Tracking
- Release Dates / Links
- Reading Goals
- And More
Writer Specific Includes the above, plus:
- Camp NaNoWriMo Tracking
- NaNoWriMo Tracking
- Project Tracking for 5 separate projects
- And More
Over the next few posts, I'll release Sample Pages (with Watermark) of 10 of the pages within the Planner. Each I've created, minus the photos/drawings which are given full credit.
*****NOTE: There are Erotic / Nude Images of Women in this Planner!***** This planner is NSFW - Not Safe For Work. Open at your own peril around others. :D Images are tasteful nudes, and feature fully nude and partial nude photos of women (no descernable faces) as well as drawings of nude women. These images are not my own and have been purchased (as needed) and credited. There are images of women of all shapes and sizes, as I find the female form erotic in any size.
I plan (ha) for The Erotic Writer's Planner to be an ongoing project that will grow each year, and evolve into what other Erotic Writers want and need in it. First plan, will be to make a smaller edition of Vol 1. This edition is 8x10 and may no suit everyone's needs. Following years, will include different/additional photos, new pages, perhaps as requested, and more. Keep up here for the newest updates.
