The curse of writer notes #amwriting #writerproblems #writing
Most of my notes tend to be in the pen and paper form
Story notes, every writer has them!
Now there is nothing wrong with a writer taking notes. They are very useful, essential even, but if you are anything like me you acquire vast quantities of such notes and you never, ever, throw them away.
The Mobile Phone
I love my mobile phone. I’ve got an iPhone which comes with this handy ‘Note’ app. I fill my phone notes app up with obscure commentary, scene ideas, and reminders to fix things. I do this at random times of the day and night. Typing on a phone is not always easy, you can hit the wrong key and autocorrect leaps in.

28 Reasons Why A Writer Might Be Having A Sleepless Night #Writer #AmWriting
Usually it’s #3, #12, or #21 that gets me.
There are so many reasons why a writer might be having a sleepless night:
- They are bubbling with literary excitement about a new story idea. It is very difficult to sleep in this situation.
- They feel that they have more ‘tweets’ left in them. Sometimes it’s hard for a writer to say goodnight to Twitter.
- Their excitable creative muse refuses to go to sleep.
- They can’t stop thinking about how much they dislike their latest draft. Why is it that our writer demons always come out to play in the early hours?
- They are questioning their entire literary career.
- Their blog stats are spiking due to their latest piece of flash fiction.
- Their blog stats have flatlined ever since they posted their latest piece of flash fiction.
