Monthly Activity of the Month:
Figuring Out What I’m Supposed to Write for …of the Month
One of the frequently most asked questions I get from my fans is “Hey Matt, how do you come up with all those amazing ideas for …of the Month??”. Well, it’s really a complicated process, but it can be broken down into several easy-to-follow steps:
Step 1: Wait until a few hours (or minutes) before the current month’s deadline.
Step 2: Try to remember what was supposed to be written for …of the Month
Step 3: Look for Paul and ask him what the topic was supposed to be.
Step 4: Talk with Paul and figure out that we never really decided on a topic.
Step 5: Think of a few crappy ideas and choose one that’s good enough to do.
Step 6: Spend 6-7 minutes writing it up.
Step 7: Stick the finished product to the end of my other work and send it all in.
And there you have it. Seven simple steps to creating the wonderful feature (GameCola’s oldest [and wisest] feature) known as …of the Month.
