For years I'd jot down all my ideas in different notebooks, scraps of paper and in my phone and could never find the ones I wanted when I needed them!

 

So, about a year ago I wrote a list of every single idea I had, what inspired it (whether it be a song, a TV show or just a random thought) and any characters I had in mind for the story. BUT I knew that if I left my list on a piece of paper I would ultimately lose it because whilst I'm a somewhat organised person, I do have scatterbrained tendencies and unfortunately for me, those seem to apply to my author life.

 

Enter, the My Story Ideas document where I keep all my ideas in one spot, and saved where I'm always be able to find it. 

​

This document has not only helped me feel less scatterbrained but also excited about all the ideas I have, and there are a lot! I hope it helps you too:)
