The one writing "hack" i absolutely ascribe to is "don't leave yourself a blank page" So if you finish a chapter, don't stop there. Write one sentence to start the next, THEN you're done. So much easier to keep going that way - ThreadSky

Yes! Similarly, I've taken to writing up detailed notes on what I want to happen in the next scene before leaving it for the next day. It feels like starting with some momentum already in place.

Huh i do this automatically because my brain just runs over into the start of the next scene, i never considered it may be helping me progress more

Yeah when I'm in the zone i do the same thing, but when I'm struggling sometimes i just wanna stop after finishing something and it's worth it to power through
