Stop managing your writing projects with a messy to-do list and hoping it turns into a plan. In Stop Dropping the Ball on Deadlines, you’ll build a simple, tool-agnostic system for reliably tracking tasks, deadlines, and progress using tools you already own. You’ll learn a repeatable workflow: capture your raw task dump, normalize it into a clean “source of truth” with consistent labels, deadlines, estimates, and dependencies, then generate import-ready outputs for the tools you actually use day-to-day. The result is a plan you can update without breaking everything—and a deadline-tracking system you’ll stick with.
