Do you sit down with a piece of paper and write down ideas about..

When I was new I did write everything down that I wanted to start discussions on. It was very hard and then I started reading discussions on the fact that we supposedly make more for responding to discussions than we do starting them. So I quit starting that many discussions and started responding more. The discussions I do start now I normally type them up as soon as I think about it, instead of writing it down or trying to remember it later.

I do that when I get a new magazine in the mail. I'll get out a notebook and start writing out discussions. When I first got on mylots, I thought about it a lot trying to think of things to start discussions about. Now, I've slowed down a bit, but once every couple of weeks I'll start several at once.

I actually have a hard time coming up with discussions to post. Only when something happens to me or something that I find interesting on the day, then I post on mylot. I don't keep a paper with a list of ideas, I wish I did though because I could make a lot more money on here if I could post up to 20 discussions a day - I have a few friends that do - it amazes me how much they do post!

I write articles and blogs and lenses so yeah, I am always jotting down notes. FOrget the paper, I have tablets titled for each venue and just jot as I think. Works great for me!
