the correct stance is that 99% of the thinking about writing you do is meaningless and 1% will utterly make your career. impossible to know when it's going to happen

@IwriteOK I keep an open note on my phone, then dump it to google docs to sort later. Just one big cluster to sort as I go. You never know what might be useful stuff later.
@IwriteOK How do I know which 1% of my thinking to use? Should my mid sentence thoughts about what to eat for dinner go in the body or be included as a footnote?
@IwriteOK I find its about timing. If you think about it too long you are never going to write it.
@IwriteOK Did it happen before or after you started to read your writing on podcasts
@IwriteOK The more correct stance is that as a writer 99% of you are never going to make it due to those 99/1 odds and you're probably better off in vegas.
@IwriteOK I think sometimes you can curate an environment that makes it more likely. But yeah it always comes at a strange time and ends up as a garbled voice note
@IwriteOK In my experience the randomness in knowing if anything you actually do write has any value to the publishing industry is about 100 percent
@IwriteOK Do you keep notes on stuff when you get ideas ?
