Before the Retreat
- Consider relocating — work from a café, library, or a different room than usual
- Block out the writing sessions in your calendar
- Remove distractors: silence notifications, close unneeded tabs, tidy your desk
- Make a meal plan so you don't lose writing time deciding what to eat
- Sleep well this week — keep evening plans light
