The Organised Writer Summary

The Organised Writer: How to stay on top of all your projects and never miss a deadline by Antony Johnston

The Organised Writer is a practical, no-nonsense system that allows you to write without worrying about administration, business affairs, or scheduling. This straight-talking guide will help you become more productive, cope with multiple projects, and make time within your life to write - while also dealing with non-writing tasks more efficiently. It includes advice on how to: * Manage your schedule * Prioritise your writing time * Take notes effectively * Work with a 'clean mind' * Get more written every day * Deal effectively with non-writing tasks * Set up a foolproof filing system * Organise your working space Read the book, then spend a weekend setting-up the system described, and you'll make the time back with interest. You'll get more written every day and complete more of your other tasks without being overwhelmed by all the things you have to do, forgot to do, or don't want to do.

The Organised Writer Reviews

I'm a messy-brained writer. The Organised Writer helped me tidy up, and improved my working life on a daily basis. * Kieron Gillen *
Johnston has uncovered a secret I wish I'd learned twenty years ago; writing benefits way less from inspiration than from sound process. * Merlin Mann *
I've been a working writer for thirty years. Johnston convinced me I've been doing it wrong. * John Birmingham *
Johnston packs his book with practical insights and clever methods - the chapters on calendar management and time-blocking alone were like a bolt of lightning to my daily routine. The Organised Writer is the manual you've been looking for. * Helene Wecker *

In 2007 Antony posted an online essay on the subject of productivity and how he organised his working space and writing life; 6 months and half a million hits later, he realised that he was not alone in wanting to establish better habits so he could allow more time for what he loved doing best: writing. Antony is a lively and experienced public speaker, blogger and networker. He lives and works in England - and he is very organised. http://antonyjohnston.com.
