Do not delay to write, if the inspiration comes

I agree with you! I write poetry and I try to always keep a pen and paper with me. As soon as I dont have one, the best poem ever will come to mind. So it is best to keep something with you to jot it down. You are right, no matter how hard you try, once you think of something good, it will never come back to you again, no matter how hard you try!

Yes, when an idea comes to my head, I will usually scribble it down on a paper and then transfer it to my computer the next morning. If not, you will certainly forget. I am not sure of music and chords but even for poems, if you should come out with a few good lines, write it down somewhere. Use a journal or a diary for this. Good topic.

Hello friend,
I am a passionate blogger and this has happened to me so many times. Sometimes I am travelling in a public transport bus or metro and then an idea would come to me. I would try to hold on to that thought so that I can write about it when I reach home but sadly, by the time I reach home, it is gone off my mind. It is the best to write as soon as possible.. or at least make a note of that thought.

The same thing had happened to me many times, and now I always carry some notebooks and some pens in my bag just in case I suddenly get inspired. In the past I have written down lines of poems on napkins or small pieces of paper, but I tend to lose those things, so a notebook is a better solution. One night I woke up and I had some lines for a poem in my head, so I got up and wrote down the lines, then I went back to bed. 5 minutes later there next lines of the poem were there, and I left my bed again to write down the lines. I happened 5 times, and when the night was over I had finished the poem. I didn't get much sleep that night, but I am glad that I managed to write down the poem before it disappeared.
