Let's say it together, "Three days in a row!"

Okay, I know that there must be something completely out of whack to make me actually utilize my blog three days in a row, but I kind of like it. I've always liked writing and it wasn't until I was a little bit older that I actually got kind of good at it. The biggest problem is I don't always write down what is in my head. Sometimes I think of these great little things and say to myself, "I need to write this down." This always happens about the time I go to sleep. I think my mind is most active when it isn't supposed to be. And of course when I say to myself, "I need to write this down," I always follow it with, "I'll remember it in the morning and I can do it then." I must take advantage of my brain even if it is inconvenient to me. So saying this I am going to finish writing now. I shall await the moment when I have a pretty cool thought and I will pick up my notebook and try to find a really cool pen (I love gel ink and different colors). Then I will let the writing flow. Until then I am finished.

Kris, I literally sleep with a notepad because of all the stupid shit I think of throughout the night :). Love reading your blog

I always carry a little notebook and my Palm with me for any ideas that hit me (from a character idea for my latest novel to a funny quote for FB status). If I forget both of those, most modern phones have a full keyboard and some sort of notepad function, of you can just text yourself...

I generally have some type of note taking device near me during the day. It's just when I've laid down for the night that things pop into my head. Maybe it's just that I am too lazy to get up and write the stuff down.
