Writing notes Second Step In my Process

My mind isn't what it used to be after two mental breakdowns, and ending up with triggering the bipolar disorder a year after my grandma died. So now, I have to handwrite my notes and outline books. Or else I forget the details small or large.

Figuring out what works for me that's been the trick until I figured out about digital note taking meaning writing the outline, character profiles, and note cards on a document printing it out placing it in plastic and binding it. Something I've not been able to do because well let's just say it costs money. Also known as clear plastic paper protectors.

I think this is important to me, writing my notes via computer is very important to me. I think carefully laying out my plans gives me some control on world building and character development.

If I had my own desk, printer, countless binders, and printing paper I would keep track of my notes. I think keeping track of notes is key for me. Becomes my mind isn't what it used to be I have to do this.

I know there are a lot of author's that probably have this same issue. I think taking notes with the character profiles, chapter by chapter planning is so intense for me.

I started to think of all the times I didn't have to do this. It's like Stephan King having memory issues due to mental health and can't remember the simple of things.

But I try really hard not to compare myself to other authors.

The note process is the brainstorming part some think is easy but it's not. I don't know what I'm doing. But using my creativity is the best part.

The reason why I became an author, and blogger is because I wanted my work to give others hope and maybe just maybe I've done this.

Working solo as an author may not be forever, maybe my husband might join me. I know he has joined me as a blogger.

So when thinking of the brainstorming path of writing we all have our own process. I ponder or look outside until a new thought comes to mind.

The thought process for an author can be many many different ways of thinking.

Outline your novel for some can be a pain in the behind.

For me when I make my outline I will go into my process of doing things. Later in the process.

My example of character profiling:

This hard work that I've been doing is so great for me I'm absolutely enjoy this. I've decided that Ronnie's journey will be endless. Yes in case your wondering I'm using the inspiration of Hope Mikaelson's likeness to inspire my character.

I had to screenshot just a bit for everyone because I don't want to show to much.

These are important things to me. If I had a lot of paper I would use my own paper binders and pens.

I learned one thing about this process make it as fun as possible because you be doing this for weeks.

I wish I had this station for my writing. This would be a huge lifesaver right now believe me.

Tell me right now in the comments below everyone would this be the ultimate station for you?

I wish I had a desk right now, but where we are living and bouncing I can't afford a desk.

But all the while being a full time author, blogger, and publishing service it definitely keeps me busy. And I don't regret this at all. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

In conclusion working hard and keeping yourself writing is all that matters.
