I published an article on Medium on fighting the Writer’s Block. When you’re hit by the slump, perhaps there’s something you can get from the post.
It’s no fun, I tell ya, but I think I’ve figured a way out of it.

Follow my five-part blog series on Medium, on my usage of Ulysses for Mac. While I did start with OneNote, I have since moved on to Ulysses which is great for Novel writing.

PART II — Organization — How I’ve organized my work for Ulysses to be as productive as possible.
PART III — Customized Export — How I’ve organized and customized my stylesheets so I can publish eBooks and Paperbacks, each further customized for the specific book.
PART IV — Workflow and Automation — Little useful tricks that reduce the pain in managing our work. I will also share a few time-saving actions that aren’t built into Ulysses, but can be done in a Mac.

However, I have since moved on to Ulysses, which is fantastic for writing. But the lessons from OneNote are still valuable.
