The Organised Writer: How to stay on top of all your projects and never miss a deadline - Writers' and Artists' (Paperback)
Antony Johnston (author)Published: 01/10/2020
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.

MEDIA 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
