When I make lists, they’re nearly always on paper. There’s just something about it. It helps me remember what I’ve written, it’s more present as a list (whereas a digital list might get lost behind multiple windows or closed and forgotten forever), and physically crossing things off when they’re completed is so much more satisfying than striking through.
Last weekend (I think) I was brimming with ideas of posts and potential posts for NaBloPoMo (such a crazy, awkward name!).
As you can see, I’ve written and posted some of them in the intervening days. I’ve also got at least one other drafted, but I didn’t want to post it on the weekend. (And yes, the sheet of paper has been used for other notes and lists previously.)
It was only after I finished it and felt satisfied at the length of the list that I realized how very few line items related to books. Hrm.
Do you make lists? On paper or screen?
