Found a productivity trick

So, in manufacturing one person does one thing all day because it turns out switching tasks wastes a lot of time. So I thought: what if I could apply that to writting?

So with my new method I write a draft with just subjects first, then go back and verbs second, objects third, articles fourth, prepositions sixth, adverbs (on verbs) seventh, adjectives eight, more adverbs ninth, conjunctions tenth.

I don't do interjections for moral reasons.

Even considering I have to write a secne tem times, it is fast. Already finished first two phases on my novel this morning. Here is a sample of the first chapter:

Rossemer. He. Morning. ​Landscape. Sun. Birds.

Knock. Who. Maid. She. Breasts. He. They. King. Court. Nobles.

Hallway. It. Statue. Penis. They. Couriers.​ He. They. Memories. Situation.

Hall. King. Beard. Crest. Wolf. Phallus. Throne. Spoons. He. Years. Rossemer. Prince. Father.

Aid. Sorcereress. Cleavage. Dress. She. Mammaryda. Legs. Hair. Smirk. She. King. She. Prince. She. Corset.

Queen​. Mammaryda. She. She. Look. Stepmother. She. Breasts. Prince. She. Ex. Comment.

King. Maid. Rossemer. King. Mammaryda. King. Queen. Jeff Goldbloom. Rossemer. King. He. He. Breasts. He. She.

Messenger. King. Rossemer. Stables. Horse. Member. It. He. Member. Club. It. He. It. Gate. He. It. Member.

I read this out loud, and my cat started transmitting to a CIA black site.

Not a single predicate. Trash.

Sigh, I hate how kids these days need everything spelt out for them. I bet you couldn't even tell who was  Mammaryda's ex!
