Subject: RE: BS: &Help- Writers-what space is best for U?
I'm not a "writer" as such, more of a jotter..... I write when the mood takes me, I carry a notebook in my bag, and a tape recorder, incase I have a tune come to mind that I can add lyrics to later - I compose most of my music in the car! singing the tunes, not playing (not recommended!) I also have a notebook by my bed - and a cd constantly primed in the computer to save any jottings on. Having said that, my poetry folder consists of napkins from pubs - and drink mats, scribblings on bits of paper torn off whatever was to hand at the time etc.... I tend to write down an inspiration, then take it home, chew it over and when the mood takes me create! - this must be the sign of a very disorganised mind - or of someone who hasn't the time to be organised!!! 2 kids, NVQ to finish, Music festival to organise, Education project to devise, photography club to keep up with, dog to walk 3 cats to feed & play with, dance band bookings blah blah blah........ When do I find time to write? But I do!! Sorry if this doesn't make sense, as I said I am a jotter rather than a writer - I'll probably come back in 2 weeks time and make some sense of this!!! LOL Lucy
