Have you ever had a strict writing deadline for a project, but found it difficult to just sit down and get it done? With so many constant distractions, finding the focus needed to meet deadlines can feel like a never-ending struggle.

However, in Tokyo, Japan, they have found the perfect solution! Located in the Bohemian Koenji district, the Manuscript Writing Café serves as a headquarters for writers on a tight deadline.

In this great article from 9GAG, the writer explains that the café has strict rules that patrons must follow. First of all, only writers with a deadline can enter the café. And those writers must stay in the café for a minimum of 30 minutes.

Upon entry to the café, writers are given a slip of paper on which to write their name and writing goal for the day.

Once allowed to get started, writers are approached by the manager on an hourly basis, to make sure that they are staying on track. However, there are options for more frequent (and forceful) check-ins, if the writer needs some extra pressure.

Now, this may sound like the ideal work environment for someone trying to pound out those last couple of chapters in their manuscript.

There is a catch, though.

As part of the café’s rules, once you enter the café, you cannot leave until you are finished with your writing project. And if that means you have to stay until after the café’s usual closing time, it will cost you extra.

While that may seem like an awful lot of pressure, many writers find that in having a set timeline to get their work done—paired with the distraction-free environment of the café—they are able to be much more productive.
