It’s Friday.

And maybe this week didn’t go the way you planned.
Maybe you didn’t hit the word count.
Maybe you opened your draft, stared at it, and closed it again.

That’s okay.

Writing isn’t always productive. It’s rarely perfect.
But if your story is still sitting with you — tugging at your attention — then it’s still worth writing.

Even if it’s slow. Even if it’s messy. Even if you’re behind where you wanted to be.

Here’s to quiet progress and unfinished drafts — the kind that eventually become finished books.

🕰️ Monday Minute with Sandra Morgan

Let’s make it practical this week.

🎯 What’s your deadline?
Not the vague “I want to write a book this year.”
A real, bold, circled-on-the-calendar date.

Because authors don’t just dream — they schedule.

Let’s make it real.

✨ **MONDAY MOMENTUM** ✨

Today’s momentum builder for authors:

**Market your book while you’re writing the next one.**

Not with big launches.
Not with pressure.
Not with perfection.

Just small signals that say,
“I’m a writer, and this story exists.”

A photo of your workspace.
A line you love.
A behind-the-scenes thought.
A quiet update, not a sales pitch.

Marketing momentum doesn’t start at publication.
It starts when readers begin to recognize your voice.

Build familiarity now.
Your future book will thank you.

✨ MONDAY MOMENTUM → DEEPER DIVE ✨

On Monday, we shared a small but powerful writing trick:
end your writing session mid-sentence.

Today, we’re unpacking why it works.

Our newest blog on The Author’s Edge goes deeper into the psychology behind this technique and how it helps writers:
• start faster
• write more consistently
• reduce resistance
• build real momentum

If opening a blank page feels like the hardest part of writing, this one’s for you.

Today’s momentum builder:
𝑬𝒏𝒅 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒔𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒎𝒊𝒅-𝒔𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆.

Seriously.

Stopping in the middle of a thought gives your brain something to grab onto next time. When you come back, you’re not staring at a blank page — you’re finishing a sentence you already want to write.

It’s a tiny trick that makes starting tomorrow feel easier than stopping today.

Momentum loves a breadcrumb trail. 🍞✍️

✨ FRIDAY WRAP-UP ✨

This week:
A few words written.
A few ideas sparked.
A few ❞𝒐𝒉𝒉𝒉 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕’𝒔 𝒈𝒐𝒐𝒅❞ moments.

That counts.

Here’s to a weekend of snacks, notes, and letting your story simmer.
Happy Friday from Morgan Media & Publishing

Today’s Monday Momentum builder:

Change your writing environment… just a little.

Before you sit down today, shift one thing:
move to a different chair,
light a candle,
open a window,
play a new playlist,
switch from laptop to notebook,
or even write standing up for five minutes.

Your brain loves novelty.
A small change in environment wakes up your focus and helps you enter your story faster.

You don’t need a cabin in the woods to feel inspired.
Sometimes momentum comes from simply shaking up the scenery.

Try one small change today and see what happens.

✨ MONDAY MOMENTUM
Today’s momentum builder:

Stop starting from the beginning.
Start from the part you’re excited to write.

So many writers stall because they think they must write in order.
But momentum does not come from chronology.
It comes from energy.

If the scene calling your name is in chapter 12…
write chapter 12.
If you only know the ending…
write the ending.
If all you have is one conversation…
write the conversation.

When you follow the excitement instead of the order,
you create natural momentum —
and your book becomes easier to finish.

Start where the spark is.
The rest will connect later.

✨ MONDAY MOMENTUM → WEDNESDAY DROP ✨

On Monday, we talked about one simple trick to get your writing moving again:
ten focused minutes.

Today, we’re taking that idea deeper.

Our new blog on The Author’s Edge breaks down
how the 10-Minute Rule actually works,
why your brain responds to small writing sessions,
and how tiny bursts of effort can build real, lasting momentum.

If starting feels hard…
if writing feels heavy…
if you’ve been avoiding your manuscript for longer than you want to admit…

This one is for you.

✨ MONDAY MOMENTUM
Today’s momentum builder is simple, but it changes everything:

𝐒𝐞𝐭 𝐚 𝟏𝟎-𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐢𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬.
𝑇ℎ𝑎𝑡’𝑠 𝑖𝑡.

Not an hour.
Not a whole chapter.
Just ten focused minutes.

Because here’s the trick:
Your brain can’t panic about 10 minutes.
But once you start, you almost always keep going.

Momentum isn’t about writing more.
It’s about making it easy to begin.

So today — don’t try to be perfect.
Just try for ten minutes.
