The Project Organizer
The book, the series, the collection, the shop, the album, the thing you keep meaning to finish: most people who make things have several projects going at once, with a life going on around them. The Project Organizer keeps each project's finish line, the rounds of work that will get it there, and the next few tasks in one place, so you can put the work down at the end of a day and find it where you left it. It's made for writers, artists, and makers working mostly on their own.

A view-only copy of the template with its sample project in place, so you can click through every page and view before you buy.
Every project has a finish line written so someone else could check it, then made one size smaller. Work happens in rounds, stretches of about five weeks with a decision date or two and an end, and on a decision date you choose whether to carry on as planned, run it light because life is full, or change the plan. When a round ends, a fifteen-minute review writes a handoff you could pick up in six months and follow in half an hour. Tasks sit in Now, Next, or Later, and a task gets a date only when the date exists outside you: a submission, a print order, an event.
There are no streaks, daily targets, or productivity scores, and nothing in it sends reminders or counts the days. At the end of each session you leave a session note saying where you stopped and what comes next, so after a week away or a season, the first session back can be a short one. A project can be Considering, Active, Resting, Finished, or Let go, and resting and letting go are treated as decisions you make on purpose, with a line on why.

The Complete Saint Violet Collection
If you find yourself coming back for more than one or two of these, the whole shop is available as a single instant download, built around the five books that take a novel from first idea to finished manuscript and growing with each new release, so anything made later arrives in the same library at no extra cost.
