Love this app. Turning it on in the morning for 10 hours really does help my productivity.
I did web development and graphic design for a couple decades, and wrote a few technology books (one of them was on DHTML, so this was a while ago). I'm now writing fiction, mostly fantasy. The $$ isn't quite where I'd…

Writing a chapter book starring lots of semi-functioning robots.
16/8 is eating as much as you usually would, but cramming it into an 8-hour period. I generally do all my eating from 11am - 7pm. It helps a little, and I'll take all the help I can get. As for the sleeping, I'm usually…
