Joyce, you mention a list of helpful words, "see list". How do I access that list?

I have several calendars/planners and they're all pen-and-paper ones because the digital ones have never worked for me at all. My favorite insight into how you use yours: "Flip back and forth from where I've been to where I'm trying to go." Love that.

Joyce, I see the value in seeing what's in front of me. This is the year of a rolling whiteboard, or multiple paper calendars. Maybe both.

Life is full of messy starts but hopefully after the mess comes a sense of order.

I also have and use a paper calendar and planner, I don't like keeping things in my phone because I forget they are there.

Joyce! The headline helper is great! Though I have some work to do. Also, kudos to you on having a 2-year (yikes!) calendar! Looking forward to your super helpful hints, thank you!

Kristi Keller just posted a different title checker which looks interesting also. I’m going to see whicfh one I like better. And, yes, the 2 year calendar helps put things into perspective. ;-)

Hi Joyce, no calendars for me, at least not paper ones. Got enough mess on my desk, probably couldn't find room between books and computer stuff and coffee cups. I do use a program to keep track of all my writings. Tag, categorize, schedule for pub, etc.

Whatever works is my motto. I know the messy-desk thing. ;- )

Joyce, I'm SO on the same page. I have a paper desk calendar book and it basically runs my entire business! Sure, Google calendar is fine but like you, I need to see it all laid out in front of me and be able to cross things off, highlight, etc. I have always used wall calendars and planner books. Life changing.
