NEW PLAN

So. I have been slowly putting together a concrete weekly plan to follow in order to maximize shit getting done.  It's taken a while, but I think I've got it down to something I can make tweaks to here and there, but is mostly in its final form.  Here's the biggest one:


Every Wednesday there will be a new Journals Wilson post.  Hopefully.  The first half of the week (From Mon. to Wed.), part of my work schedule will be writing something to go on here, to ultimately be posted on Wednesday.  I always need something to write on the side to unwind with during a big project, but I've found that the way I've gone it hasn't been productive.  Usually what I do is have a book that's less ambitious, or at the least much less developed to the point where I'm at the easier, and more fun stages of development.  It ends up putting me in this cycle where the project I'm supposed to be putting the majority of my focus towards gets overshadowed, and then it becomes the side project, which then overshadows the original side project and rinse repeat, rinse repeat.  I've been wanting to do more stuff on here, so I thought regular postings on here would be a better project to be working on on the side, and push future projects to the future. 


Every week day I'll be working on getting a book done.  Right now, that will be Eating the Ram's Head and Fig Leaf, and will continue to be Eating the Ram's Head and Fig Leaf until there is a final draft being sent out for publication.  Upon that event, I'll be moving right on to getting another book done. 


After the weekly Journals Wilson post is done on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday time not devoted to the main project will be arranging my documents.  Probably doesn't sound like it needs its own time, but it totally does.  I always have at least one word document open on my computer that I type ideas, drabbles and at times almost complete essays whenever they find me, which they never fail to.  So my computer is filled with documents titled the date they were saved, filled with all this crap that needs to be put in their respective places according to what project they're for.  Seeing as that will be less warranting heavy time, I add to Friday's schedule filling a document with ideas for posts on here, so I never run out of anything to write about and lessening the chances of fucking up.


One of the things I've been wanting to do here for a while, is doing a take off Hey Rube!, which was this series of articles Hunter Thompson did up to his suicide.  Sometimes it'll be just me writing journals about something that happened to me recently with varying degrees of actual reality.  Sometimes it'll be something like me running into Pat Robertson at Roosters and talking to him about some crazy bullshit he did over buffalo shrimp.  Very Gonzo-y and fun.


I'm also planning on writing lots of essays, short stories, art, movies, putting up some stuff I have on the backlog, songs by my band (Maxwell Wilson and the Ego Poundcake Assembly), and plenty of other stuff to fill up the weeks.

So bookmark me, or keep an eye on my facebook. I'll be popping links on there every Wednesday like a person who pops links to their blog on their facebook every Wednesday.
 
I'll also be doing putting the links on twitter, so if you're into that sort of thing, here's my twitter:
