ZineWriMo Day 5 – Lightbulb Moments

Lightbulb Moments – Share your zine ideas boo/idea file/Notion/etc

Another day, another prompt! I’ve already mentioned how I capture ideas and current projects here and there, but today is dedicated specifically to showing the ways we capture ideas.

I am still all about carrying around a little (or big, you do you) notebook wherever you go and/or making sure you have a notes app on your phone that you like. You never know when or where inspiration could strike. Maybe you don’t use all of the ideas, but it’s a good thing to get into the habit of letting the ideas flow and viewing the world through a creative lens.

A large part of that for me has been starting to use Notion. While I’ll never let go of paper entirely, Notion (not sponsored) has made it super easy for me to pop ideas down and have them appear on my computer for when I’m ready. While still being available in Notion on my phone to poke around with as desired.

But, as I mentioned about paper, I do like the action and mindspace of writing things down and working out ideas that way, so I do still have my Kismet notebook that I turn to for such occasions. And finally, for all the partially finished zines, I have a soft, A5 zipper folder to keep everything in one place. While that’s not so much ideas as current projects, I think it still counts.

So that is me for today. I hope you all are having a most fabulous weekend and enjoying your time.

Until next time…
