THE CONSTRAINT STACK ENGINE

You don’t need more freedom. You need better limits.

The Constraint Stack Engine is a three-page tactical system for creators who thrive under pressure but don’t always know how to apply it. This tool doesn’t offer prompts. It builds architecture. One limit at a time.

You’ll start with a wide-open draft. Then you’ll apply one constraint. Then another. Then a third. The tension builds. So does the clarity.

Each layer adds pressure, form, and focus until the piece starts to write itself.

Inside you’ll find:

• 4 stackable constraint modules (Voice, Form, Goal, and Sabotage)
• 9 constraints per module to mix, match, or multiply
• A simple system to escalate complexity without losing momentum
  

You can use this to:

• Break perfectionism through playful limitation
• Discover new forms by narrowing the path
• Build structure into early drafts without killing the spark
  

This isn’t a generator. It’s an engine. Quiet, powerful, and very good at getting stuck things to move.

Format: 3-page PDF
Designed for: writers, designers, developers, idea people
Side effects: momentum, clarity, oddly specific joy
