I’ve had ideas when I have my phone or iPad handy, so I type my outline or fragments or highlights or… trash, usually trash when I come back to it a week later. WTF was I thinking at the time? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But I also get story ideas. Characters. Who keep talking. Who won’t go away. Who won’t. Shut. The. Frak. Up. Those stories get written. Otherwise I can’t keep my sanity.
“Hi! I have a sequel!” No no no, go away, you’re done now— “Get your keyboard, I’ll dictate, you type. Ready?” This is a bad time for— “My bad, I made that sound like a question, it wasn’t. Here we go!”
