Dean tells us it doesn't matter what we write on...even if the paper has coffee stains because the idea has to be jotted down.

You are so right.
I'm glad you kept that notebook.
This is a great poem.
I've scribbled on napkins or anything else I could grab.
If we don't jot it down, we lose it.
I enjoyed reading Dean's piece. When I was a college student I used to write many things along with the notes. My teachers have punished me several times for doing this. They probably had no idea they were punishing a future writer-Ha!
Thank you so much for writing this piece, Dean and thanks a lot, Bredz for creating this forum.
Blessings to both of you!!
I enjoyed this poem by Dean, and can relate. I used to writer, scribble, and doodle on anything that could be written on...then keep it, just in case I may use it in future. Coffee stains are nothing.
I also relate to this poem, Dean. I write notes all the time.Thanks for sharing this enjoyable poem.
This is exactly how my hand writing looks like in 2:AM chuckled
Are you my soul brother? HAHA Just kidding.
I'm still doing the same thing. I enjoyed it and thank you for sharing it with us. Now I'm more motivated to keep them.
Hope you have a wonderful day!!!! Here's some power hugs for you!!!!!!

By all means keep them all...I have some soread across various places that I need to go gather.
I am just like you Dean. My writing space is filled with notes of all types. Ideas jotted down which may take days to materialize as articles. Some never see the light of day. But yes, jotting down ideas is important.

I find myself writing Hub articles in my head all the time. I'll come up with a clever transition or witty summary idea and plan an outline of points I want to include. However, when I sit down to write, the ideas are gone. Any suggestions? How do you keep up with specific writing ideas?

Do you think its a good idea or bad idea to write about politics on HubPages?Politics, like religion, stirs up emotions in some people bringing out their, shall we say, darker qualities. Knowing this is it a good idea to rouse them with political hubs?

What do you do when you are running out the door and you have a great idea for a hub?Have you ever been late/ missed an event because you had a great idea for a hub? Did you feel guilty that you missed it? Were you mad that you didn't write it down and then you lost it?

Will his family be safe while he is in jail or will they be put under witness production? Is Mitch McConnell trying to get Donald Trump to resign?

One thing I would find useful is if there was a field in which we could put a small note next to our Hub listings in "my account" to keep track of important information related to certain Hubs. This would be useful to make notes for Hubs that need to be revisited and updated due to...
