Hi Sol.

Once I read an interview by Richard Konstalenez(sp?) where he said something 
to the effect that the ideas you have not executed are just as important as 
the ones you did execute and that you should write them all down, which I 
found rather inspiring. So I've always managed to have some kind of project 
book around where I can sketch things out so I don't forget them. The trick 
is to just get yourself in the habit of writing them down immediately, 
instead of convincing you'll do it at the next commercial break, and also 
have a book big enough to properly sketch it out, but small enough to be 
handy. I like the idea of carrying a small sketch book of little tablet like 
detectives use on TV, but I never did actually use it. I got one now that is 
about the size of a novel, with a soft leather cover and is filled with 
graph paper, and its perfect. I spent most of last week at the hospital with 
a sick relative, and ended up sketching out a lot of projects that had been 
sitting around dissolving in my brain.

Basically its maintaining a mild mixture discipline and handiness that gets 
me by.
