    About this ebook

    Unfinished projects drain creative energy. This Topic Workbook, based on Devon Ellington's popular workshop, will take you step-by-step through each unfinished project and decide if it's worth reviving, putting in stasis, or laying to rest, once and for all. Complete strong work, solve problems that got you stuck in the first place and turn it into something workable, and let go of projects that have outlived their purpose. Learn how to work revived projects into the schedule, and how to revisit shelved projects in the future to see if they are worth reviving. The workbook contains exercises and resources for writers at every level of their careers, and can be used again and again.
