Wilson's Field Notes

Wilson's Field Notes are a series of blog posts written by Kevin on the (now-defunct) Don't Starve webpage. They detail some of Wilson's survival experiences, and were posted from May to July 2012. Due to the various changes the Don't Starve franchise has been through since, it is unknown if Wilson's Field Notes are canonical.

I think that if I build a wooden effigy of myself, and fill it full of meat, I can create an insurance policy against violent death. It’s a technique that’s well-known amongst the scientific community.''

''Maybe I should throw in some of my beard hairs as well. It couldn’t hurt!''
