Okie dokie. So Tobi has a much more complete version of this working at tbgtd.tiddlyspot.com/#QuickNotes, with some great documentation at http://tbgtd.tiddlyspot.com/#[[quick-add%20help]] (Tobi tends to have downright awesome documentation!)
Basically, copy the script into a new tiddler, and it should work, no plugin required. (you'll need the TiddlerListMacro plugin for the feature of listing recently created notes from it) You should be able to hack and tweak away at this to fit your needs quite a bit more easily.
