Every storyteller needs a good set of tools. Here are some of the resources I've found useful for writing, staying productive, and keeping the creative momentum going. These are things I genuinely use or have tried and recommend.

Writing & Productivity Tools

• Pomodoro Technique — A time-management method that breaks work into focused 25-minute intervals with short breaks. Great for pushing through writer's block. Learn more.
• Online Timer — A simple, free web-based timer perfect for Pomodoro sessions. No downloads needed. Try it here.

Community & Inspiration

• Realm Makers — A conference for writers of speculative fiction that I attended in St. Louis in August 2015. A fantastic place to connect with fellow storytellers.
• Broken Lens Productions — My YouTube channel for comedic videos and filmmaking experiments. Sometimes the best writing inspiration comes from playing in a different medium.
