This is the pile of notes that have accumulated on my bedside table since I’ve been back from my research trip.
Can you tell I’m having a hard time sleeping lately?
I feel like a mad scientist, jotting down random snippets of prose or plot ideas. I swear the rest of my life is crazy organized–and even my research notes and hard copy edits–but this particular pile is, well… not.
You need chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star. –Nietzsche
I am now off to weed out the junk and put the decent sticky-notes to good use in birthing some sort of star. Hopefully not a supernova.
And by the way, hello again!
Lovely to have you back.
Yvonne.
Hello again!
Love that quote by Nietzsche.
Most gorgeous bedside table ever!
And welcome back!
They look a bit like autumn leaves. I think it's an inspiring pile that should birth a galaxy.
I hope you're going to post some photos and share some of the historical tidbits you learned!
Alright, glad to hear that the research is going well:) Mad scientists rock! 😉
Welcome back! Hey, all your notes are in one place. That makes you pretty darned organized by my standards. (And they look pretty, too!)
I agree with VR – definitely organized enough. Have fun with the rest! 🙂
Love that colorful, disordered pile! It's wonderful that the trip brought on this kind of creativity.
This week I frantically searched for a nearby sheet of paper to scribble down a bit of dialog. The only thing I could find was the blank white side-flap of my Proactive Acne Medication box.
Maybe I should start carrying a pad of sticky notes in my back pocket? Hmm…
I think your pile is incredibly organized! All of your notes are in the same place! When I jot things down they end up on little scraps of paper and most get thrown away before I can use them. Plus yours are pretty (and what an AWESOME bedside table–I love the cool tiles.
I love that pile! I bet the research trip was wonderful. Now, the real work begins. lol
I have a similar pile that needs organizing. Welcome back! I just came back myself. Can't wait to catch up with you.
I love chaos. I think I'm a little bit addicted. Nietzsche was diffinately onto something. I couldn't do half of my creative work without a lttle bit (ok maybe a lot) or disorder now and then. I think your pile of sticky notes indicates a very inspirational research trip.
Hey, Stephanie, welcome back! I love your star-shaped sticky notes. Very inspiring. And that table is gorgeous!
I love that your notes are star-shaped! And the supernova reference – grin 😉
