And Stickynotes, very good point...at least we know we're capable of coming up with something that sounds good in our heads ;-) <br /><br />And now I have to wonder if they have any kind of notepad that can attach to your hip so that whenever you get struck with a SNI you have the means to write it down no matter where or what you're doing!ChristaCarol Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02908423468344511136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501611235905219648.post-35255799969924047872011-03-31T20:40:19.120-05:002011-03-31T20:40:19.120-05:00LOVE your baby bump!!

Great name choices too - naming kids is so hard! <br /><br />I've been attacked by a SNI too - and it also happened when I was supposed to be sleeping.

I like the name Anderson, though (don't kill me) it reminds me of the Matrix "Mr. Anderson!"<br /><br />Second, when SNI hits, I MUST write it down right away. If I don't it'll disappear into the void.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17007647655110093171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501611235905219648.post-67382171826957958692011-03-31T13:14:40.732-05:002011-03-31T13:14:40.732-05:00I get the same perfect dialogue thing as I'm g...I get the same perfect dialogue thing as I'm going to sleep, and then it's gone when I wake up enough to write it down. But at least I know I CAN come up with perfect scenes. I just can't transfer them to paper ;)<br /><br />And my vote goes to Christopher :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501611235905219648.post-5878214985539370852011-03-31T13:12:08.342-05:002011-03-31T13:12:08.342-05:00Sounds like it all just depends on the project, an...Sounds like it all just depends on the project, and where you're at with any other projects, that may decide how you handle them. I like your idea of writing the ideas down right then and there. I do that with current projects when a light bulb sparks over my head, but I never seem to be around any pen or paper when a SNI or SNP hit me...so I just think about it over and over again to memorize lol. Some great methods, Catherine, thanks for sharing!ChristaCarol Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02908423468344511136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501611235905219648.post-71390605009767088802011-03-31T12:49:52.851-05:002011-03-31T12:49:52.851-05:00When a SNP (Shiny New Project) idea hits me, I hav...When a SNP (Shiny New Project) idea hits me, I have to get enough of it down right then in order to set it aside and get back to work on the DOP (Dull Old Project). Sometimes, I can write down a few sentences and set it aside. Other times, I have to work out my character development and get a basic plot idea down. Still other times, I start writing immediately. That last one just happened--and I think it is actually one of the best pieces of writing I've ever had. After that, though, I had to go through my character development and plot outline, before I could move on with it.Catherine Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05830640955594808304noreply@blogger.com
