Hello!

I agree with keeping a notebook by you.  My mind is CONSTANTLY filled with ideas and such and I just recently figured out how to link all my book ideas into a sort of sordid series.  I have also been reading one of the facebook ads for Dreame. These are full of apsiring authors and it's a pay for tokens to read (which is a downfall I guess when you don't have money) but it also is a forum in which the authors get feedback from their audience and they write at their own pace.  I am looking into putting up my story ideas on there, myself.  I just don't know how to do the artwork. Good luck!

I used to go in my car and write on my lunch hour at work. Just today I was saying how daily chores take up too much time.

No time for authors or is there?

Yes, writing can take up a lot of time during a 24 hour day if not monitored correctly. I only have a part-time job but once I start writing after I get home, I tend to not want to stop. Other home jobs need to get done, so I found out that by making a schedule to follow, then I can write as much as time allows without important home jobs being forgotten about

I wake up with ideas. I keep a notebook by my bed and jot things down all the time.

a writer writes . . . always
Always carry a small notebook and well-sharpened pencil around with you at all times. Sometimes ideas will pop into your head when you're thinking about them least.

TAke a look at my blogs and the variety of things I have been writing on
over the years. Crisp short posts, cos like you, I also dunnot have the time. But I think when I do, my blogs with the comments on them will be material that I can re-write and maybe even publish with, on those specific themes
