Rapid Release Pipeline | Staggered Production Dashboard | Annual Release Calendar & Staggered Production Board | HTML Book Launch Tracker

✦ Publishing four to six books a year does not fail because you write too slowly

It fails because three books are in three different stages at once and nobody is holding the whole map.

This dashboard holds the map. An interactive HTML publishing pipeline for indie and self-publishing authors — release calendar, staggered production board, word counts, deadlines, vendors, budget, and backlist revenue in one offline file.

✦ WHAT MAKES THIS ONE DIFFERENT

Most author planners track one book at a time. This one is built for overlap.

The **Production Board** is the spine: drafting, revisions, edits, proofing, formatting and cover work sit side by side across multiple titles, so you can see the exact week where two books both want your editor.

The **Capacity Load** meter then answers the question that actually matters before you sign that schedule — can one human absorb this month, or are you already over.

✦ WHAT IS INSIDE

→ Release Calendar: the full publishing year at a glance, release dates anchored and spaced
→ Production Board: every title, every stage, laid out in parallel so overlaps become visible
→ Word Count Log: daily output that turns a vague pace into a real number
→ Deadlines: hard dates surfaced with the runway left in front of them
→ Capacity Load: whether the current month is sustainable or overbooked
→ Series Bible: names, timelines and continuity anchors kept close while you draft fast
→ Vendors: editors, cover designers, proofreaders, narrators, and who is booked when
→ Budget Ledger: per-book spend laid out against the whole year, not guessed at
→ Risk Ratings: the titles most likely to slip, flagged before the slip happens
→ Launch Checklist: the pre-release sequence, so nothing gets skipped in a compressed week
→ Backlist Revenue: earlier titles tracked as the engine funding the next release
→ Retrospectives: what worked, what broke, carried forward into the next cycle
→ Overview: all of it on one page

✦ NUMBERS THAT DO NOT FLATTER YOU

A pipeline dashboard is only worth having if the figures hold up when you are deciding whether to take on another book. Four details, each one deliberate:

→ **Capacity shows a dash, not zero percent, until you set your weekly hours.** A load meter reading 0% when you have not told it your capacity is worse than no meter at all
→ **Backlist revenue for the last twelve months means the last twelve calendar months** — not the last twelve months you happened to log. Two entries eighteen months apart do not get added together and called a year
→ **Your best writing day is your best day, not your best session.** Two sessions on the same Saturday add up, the way they actually did
→ **Average spend per book counts only spending you assigned to a book.** General costs do not quietly inflate the divisor and make each title look cheaper than it was

✦ WHO THIS IS FOR

→ Romance, cozy mystery, litRPG and serial fiction authors on a fast release schedule
→ Series writers juggling two or three titles in different production stages
→ Indie authors coordinating freelancers across overlapping deadlines
→ Anyone whose release plan currently lives in eleven browser tabs and a notes app

✦ HOW IT WORKS

→ One HTML file that opens in any modern browser — desktop, laptop, tablet or phone
→ No account, no subscription, no internet connection needed. Ever, not just after download
→ Everything you type stays in your own browser, on your own device. Nothing is uploaded
→ Export a backup file any time, and import it on another computer — the whole year moves with you
→ Six color themes and three interface languages (English, Português, Italiano)
→ Colors chosen for low eye strain during long planning sessions, with clear contrast between stages
→ Saves as you type

✦ WHAT YOU RECEIVE

→ One interactive HTML dashboard
→ An illustrated user guide walking through each panel and how the sections connect
→ Your license

✦ PLEASE NOTE

This is an interactive dashboard, not a printable planner — it is built to be used on screen.

Your work lives in the browser you open the file with, so use the same one each time, and export a backup before switching computers.

Instant digital download; nothing ships. Because downloads are instant, all sales are final — but questions before you buy are genuinely welcome, and so are questions after. Just send a message.

A fast release schedule is not chaos. It is a pipeline. This gives you the view of it.
