Need some kickass erasable pens for writing in your copy of The Anti-Planner? After testing five different brands, these are my #1 pick: check them out!

Absolutely fantastic book of help with getting things to my Done column and not feeling crappy about it. Lovely art and motivation sprinkled through the book with bright colors and handy tasks. It’s beautifully bound with great quality of paper and cover, even a place to slot my pen in. It looks good sitting out on my table to remind me that I can do it.
Only tiny thing is that the “Stuck” first category has the tab partway through the chapter instead of at the beginning like the others. Drives me a bit mad but I’ll get over it!

This is a great resource and is so helpful! I had also forgotten about ordering it and it’s been awesome!

Worth the wait! The book is beautiful, nice thick pages, the large wire binding makes it easy to flip to the activity you want without bending the pages, getting stuck or falling out.
The layout is easy to follow and most of the font is a good size with good contrast, there are some pages with a smaller, finer font that could be a challenge to someone with visual impairments.
There is great advice, motivation and humor on every page which are also covered in amazing artwork. As I’ve flipped through the book I’ve had a million “exactly” moments where Dani has presented an all too true and too common issue, comment, feeling or challenge that I’ve personally experienced and her activities, words of wisdom and personal truths make me feel “heard”. Having the book and knowing that it sold out kind of makes me feel like I’m part of a secret nerodivergent club of people who “get it”.
Thank you Dani for all the hard work, heart and soul you put into this book for us. You rock!

EVERY FREELANCER SHOULD HAVE A COPY OF THIS. Sorry for shouting but it’s TRUE.

For a long time, I’ve been meaning to make a little cheat sheet of different methods I know to deal with various difficulties I encounter. This book is that list, on steroids, and much more, crafted with Dani’s signature combination of care, creativity, knowledge, realism, and optimism. You don’t have to sit down and read a bunch to start to use it. It’s designed to be used in the moment of struggle, whatever that struggle may be, to help you find just the kind of exercise or activity you need. I’ve used it several times in the first week, for both myself and my daughter, to great effect. I’m gobsmacked by what you’ve created here, Dani, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. Thank you!
