Getting stuff [and writing] done

I’ve recently started using Chris Winfield‘s technique of chunking tasks to 40 pomodoros per week which he describes here. I’m essentially using this technique for “maker” time – as described in this post from Paul Graham. I’ve found this technique works really well for writing (one I know what I’m going to write) as described as writing sprints here.

It may be the case that the “quieter summer” has made this easier and once the new academic year starts, I’ll find it harder to maintain this, but so far, I’ve found it impressively productive and not too tough to keep to.
