Anyone keep a Document of Ideas?

Inspiring things you saw/heard; ideas you came up with (original or partial)-- I know I keep one. Currently, there are 61 games, 42 stories, 38 music videos, 22 soundtracks, 10 short animations, 17 long animations (though you can mix all these up to form different things), and 99 inspiring tidbits, which are parts of things that could work for something.

Bah only 289 ideas. I need more than that XD

So do you keep a document of ideas? Do you plan on completing any of them?

Same. I hate it when I see people writing the title nicely on a page then don't write anything on it. To avoid that, I never start writing anything down until I know it will be more than a sentence. That's why teachers get mad at me for not taking notes  tongue

But yeah, I really should. I have lots of ideas and tend to forget them after a while. Then I come back to them and try hard, but it just won't come.

This is exactly why I started doing it. I thought it was 'babyish' and 'too much work' which is why I didn't start it till a year ago. But it's been awesome. Besides, you don't want to forget funny things you came across, or epic stories? Even writing down dreams eases the tension, however kidish it may sound to do.

I have a few story ideas in a plain text document on my laptop somewhere. I really ought to start keeping a true document, though...

Re: Anyone keep a Document of Ideas?

Not really a document, more like a portfolio. I usually draw or write my ideas down on paper. Some I plan on completing, others have fallen into the "maybe" pile.

Re: Anyone keep a Document of Ideas?

I keep my ideas documented. But it is mainly for Pokemon, and some stories or games.

Re: Anyone keep a Document of Ideas?

yes but i only wrote down quick phrases or a few sentence-long story starters that i really don't plan on using and i've forgotten where i was going with most of them anyway

and it's all mashed together in one document in a notepad file so yeah

Re: Anyone keep a Document of Ideas?

I write quotes on the whiteboard in my locker.

Right now it's a Parr0t quote. It used to be something from Billy Madison.

Re: Anyone keep a Document of Ideas?

I have a folder I call Outline. It is where I keep my ideas layed out and well organized. It suits me well because I have about 540 ideas now. I plan to keep some of my rather innovated ones and delete my well amateur ideas (unless I procrastinate).

Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.

Re: Anyone keep a Document of Ideas?

I have several word documents on my computer... and a sketchbook.

Though, it's just full of poems and some illustrations, does that count?


Everyone's argument is invalid. Your argument is invalid.

Yes. The sketchbook, even 'if' it is just doodles you did during school-time or something, the concepts can be inspirational. I have one that I redid on my computer from a semester of a certain school area  smile

I used to have a book of story ideas but I don't anymore. Maybe I'll start keeping an idea book again.

My is going to start making a list of things she's going to do this summer.  To put this in perspective, one of her smaller goal is to make a full length music video.

I've got my brain, but I borrowed it to my best friend.

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say. I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.
