hawkwing_lbNo, I'm not talking about my government's plan to force everyone to emigrate, allowing them to have the country to themselves. (I could wish I were joking about that.)
No, this is my very own two-year plan.
2YP AIMS
-- core thesis complete
-- complete novel #1.
-- reading competence in ancient Greek
-- reading competence in modern Italian
-- have investigated freelance writing opportunities to some limited degree.
-- basic reading skillz in German
Followed by! The (still tentative) Five-Year Plan!
*sinister drumroll*
5YP AIMS
-- nonfiction book proposal for a) thesis and b) something else relevent to my interests.
-- complete novel #2
-- reading competence in Greek, Italian, German, Latin.
-- send out complete novel #1.

Not gracefully, but I could well accept it.
