About Me

I'm pretty lazy. I homeschool my 5 naughty kids, write stuff, do dishes, put away laundry, cook stuff and give unsolicited opinions. I stay young-looking by eating food with preservatives and not taking off my mascara before I go to bed.

Organizing Ideas

How do you organize your ideas for articles, books, poems, etc.?

I have spiral notebooks in my car, by where I nurse and in my diaper bag. I have so many ideas written down that I may never discover them all. God forbid I lose one of those notebooks.

I also have loose pieces of paper all over the house.

And loose pieces of paper filed away under “Ideas” in a filing cabinet by my desk. Ask me the last time I consulted that file. I don’t remember.

I’m just happy to have my ideas out of my head and down on paper. I figure they’ll float back to me when I need them, when I have a shortage of ideas.

Where do you keep all your ideas? How do you stay organized?
