#notion writing template

[just-a-local-dreamer]

Notion is the answer!!

It's like making a webpage for your wips but you don't have to code anything (!) And it's free (!)

It combines note-taking, databases, calendars, and to-do lists. You can build exactly what you need—a writing hub, a plotting database, a journal, or a complex project tracker. You can add text and images and playlists and videos, embed pages within pages, and make custom databases for all sorts of things. It's rather great, really (i am biased)

The only shortcoming with Notion is that you start with a blank canvas, and have to build everything yourself. The learning curve can be steep, so I suggest you find some templates to start with.

Talking of which, may i interest you in:

A dark academia project template

The same but in a different font, and a bit neater

A master page, a writing hub where you can develop multiple books at once

(Did you notice I made a gradient?)

Notion has taken over my life so I made this cute icon collection to share with other writers trying to make aesthetic notion pages for every writing idea under the sun.

My life looking tidy thanks to Notion 🗞️☁️

Here’s my fall theme, which I hope to keep a bit longer before winter sets in! 🧡

While I use this for planning my novel, I also organize my notes for Homeward, my newsletter. (It’s as irregular as it is intriguing, like a letter from a good friend).

MY PINTEREST, AKA MY HAPPY PLACE

[wellwrittennotions]

When I began putting my thoughts and ideas together to begin writing a story, I noticed how scattered my notes felt. I would start with an idea, backtrack due to being struck with a new idea, and then lose my place and my progress. I decided to make a Notion template to help me finish some of my stories and bring life to my ideas.

This Notion writing template was created to provide a structured step-by-step approach to the writing process equipped with Activity Schedulers, Progress Trackers, comprehensive Character Profiles, in-depth Worldbuilding Profiles, and databases for the Outline, Drafts, and Scene Cards. Going step-by-step is not imperative for experienced writers. The procedural layout has been implemented to help new writers make a start beginning with creating a writing prompt to starting their first draft. It's optimized for new writers, experienced writers, fanfic writers, and hobbyists.

Fanfic Writer Notion Template | Notion Template for Fanfiction Writers | Writing Notion Template | WIP Organizer Template

Hello! I'm very excited to finally share the Notion template I've created for fanfic writers!

Admittedly, I am more of a fanfiction reader than a fanfiction writer, but I wanted to try my hand at creating this Notion template. That being said, I'm not sure if I've organized the template in a way that is super helpful or makes sense for a writer, so any advice/suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated! I am definitely planning on revising the template - this is a very early iteration.

Feel free to contact me if you have any suggestions! :)

Hey writeblr, I made an author template on Notion. I've been using Notion to organize my WIPs for a couple of years now and thought some people might like the system I've developed for myself, so I made it available on my ko-fi shop! (the icons I used are also by me and also available on the shop ^^)

[fablecore]

for writers who will be attempting nanowrimo this year (or writers who just want to write), i published my notion template that i've been using for around two years now. it's super minimal and emphasizes brainstorming, jotting down quick ideas, rearranging scenes/chapters as you write, and constant reminders about your story's thesis. you can get it for free here 🤍🍧🍡

Hey! Hello! (Notion writing template update!!) <3

I've updated the plotting tools of this template. It consists of two parts now:

Chapter outline

and scene cards

These are interlinked! So you can start plotting from either one :)

If you prefer to look at the big picture first, start with the chapters. I’d suggest you write out one main thing that happens in each of your chapters, then start breaking the main idea into scenes. When you add a scene to the chapter outline, it will automatically appear in the scenes database as well.

If you have many vivid scene ideas, start with the scene cards. Write each scene you have in mind on a separate note card, then start sorting them under chapters — it's like moving sticky notes around!
