I now almost always carry a notebook around with me. If I don't have that, I make crappy little notes on my mobile phone, but this sucks, because I can't enter the ideas fast enough and most evaporate.

At the moment, I'm really struggling to draw a line between work time and writing time, because the writing is so much more immediate (and interesting, even though I have a job I enjoy). And there aren't very many people I can talk to about it (don't want to test bf's patience; most other friends don't know I write; don't want to be constantly boring them with the same stuff) ... yeah.
