Inspiration for Blog Posts
I'm constantly thinking of new ideas for blog posts. From the minute I get up I'm trying to think of witty humor and the perfect wording for my content.
Then I get the "aha" moment where I've thought of the witty humor and perfectly worded content and I'm nowhere near the computer, or a pen and paper. I try desperately to remember all that I've come up with as I race to the nearest computer.
By the time I sit down to type I've forgotten most of what I had come up with. The words are not flowing onto the screen the same way as they did in my head. I try going back to the place the inspiration occured to see if I can capture it again but it has escaped me.
As I lay in bed many hours later I think of more witty humor and perfectly worded paragraphs. Before I think any further I race to the computer to write all I thought of.
It is making me afraid to be very far from the computer or pen and paper because I never know where the moment of inspiration will hit and I don't want that perfect blog post to be gone forever.
Does anyone else suffer from this from time to time?
All the best,
Erin

Many of us have the same problem. I agree with carrying a small recorder with you. Your phone may also have a recording device.
I know this is old school but to carry a tablet may be to big but a mini recorder will fit in your purse or pocket Erink
It will always sneak up on you. If you have a tablet keep it with you so you can jot them done in an instant. Jerry
Hi, Away from computer and pen and paper? How about a phone? i always have my phone with me. If you always have it near you, maybe you can find an app that lets you dictate your idea so you will be ready to go when you get to your pc.
Trying to think out of the box.
Capture those ideas! And share them of course.
Best wishes!
Yes my phone is normally with me and I've put a couple of ideas into my notes that does help too.

Yes! This does happen to me too. Especially when driving and in the shower, the two worst times to be able jot/keyboard the ideas..
I like the idea of dictating that some have recommended!
Yes!! That happens to me all the time.
