It helps when my bf is into writing. =))geraldinehttp://redpenredtemper.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-80248723072912781.post-1023503844796053292012-04-04T10:48:51.102-07:002012-04-04T10:48:51.102-07:00Yup, inner Jack Russel here too.

Drives my hubby mad!<br />But most of the time my creativity is flexible and has me chasing idea-squirrels, so I totally understand you. :)Veronica Sicoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03741318844378921184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-80248723072912781.post-90461941931238145142012-04-03T15:11:05.561-07:002012-04-03T15:11:05.561-07:00A names-list is a good idea.

I have a brainstorming folder on my flash drive where I keep a list of story ideas, character ideas, magic systems, and names I like (the last of which comes in very handy when I'm trying to name minor characters in a new book). I wish the lists were longer, sometimes. And I wish I had a list of short story ideas--those ones are hard.<br /><br />Totally understand the list-making. I have lists for everything...Charlie N.

Do you by chance have a writer's notebook? I love mine to capture all of those ideas that come to mind as well as exploring and playing with writing.Amanda Villagómezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02119297811490732509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-80248723072912781.post-89983878351771085122012-04-02T22:20:07.464-07:002012-04-02T22:20:07.464-07:00Oh my gosh this is funny.

I'm with you -- making lists helps, and if you absolutely have to write a spontaneous scene, do so and tuck it away in a file for later. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11657583544798915346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-80248723072912781.post-46190086128564639892012-04-02T21:38:17.113-07:002012-04-02T21:38:17.113-07:00Congrats on finishing your WIP.
