♥️ REASONS YOU'LL LOVE AUTHOR HQ
💜 HIGH LEVEL ORGANIZATION
Author HQ utilizes a hierarchy for task, novel, and query tracking organization. From novel-level overview to detailed scene breakdowns and characters profiles that include the option to track over 100 character details, Author HQ enables you to keep as detailed or as a general track of your story as you’d like.
💙 FOCUS & CLARITY
Designed with psychology and productivity principles in mind, Author HQ’s minimalist design eliminates all distractions and pressure elements (like clocks) to help you laser in on your tasks, novel planning, and writing. Every detail the human mind has to process is energy and focus syphoned away from your creative well. AuthorHQ helps you focus only on the things that will advance your creativity and enhance your storytelling.
🩷 CONTINUITY
Track story questions across your novel at the Book, Chapter, and Scene level to prevent plot holes. Each Chapter has a Scenes overview where you can track all elements like: locations, characters, atmosphere, weather, time of day, and more to ensure consistency and continuity from scene-to-scene, chapter-to-chapter.
💚 TIME MANAGEMENT
Author HQ’s dashboard features “today’s” and “tomorrow’s” tasks front and centre to help you see your daily overview organized by your most pressing tasks. As well as, a weekly and monthly calendar view for easy task management. Each book has it’s own dedicated task dashboard where you will only see tasks related to that specific novel, helping you to manage, create, and complete the most book-relevant to-dos.
💛 ELIMINATE OBSTACLES
Author HQ comes with a journal and weekly and monthly review templates where you will be able to identify book and general life related bottlenecks that impede your creativity or productivity. Author HQ helps you identify and create tasks that will help resolve these problems. This way, you can eliminate obstacles instead of letting them pile up which can be devastating to the writing process.
🖤 MOTIVATION & CONFIDENCE
Created with outmost respect for your time and craft, all 8 Author HQ BOOK templates come with 50 Chapters that are pre-loaded with 3 scenes each. That’s over 200 pre-made pages. This way, you can spend all your time on creating captivating stories, characters, and locations, and less time on admin and template management. Should you need more than 50 Chapters, or more than 3 Scenes per Chapter, you can easily add more of either by simply clicking “+ New Page.”
