Keep Journal

KEEP A JOURNAL

Learn to keep a journal. Use a bound journal. Number and date each page. I always use odd page numbers on the left and even on the right. I write and draw two page spreads. I prefer a wire bound center that unfolds to 8.5 x 11″ paper size for easy photocopying.

Use lined paper and print your lettering so others can read it. Keep track of all ideas of things that might someday be a patent. Talk about things you would like to build. Important lessons you have learned. Odd little facts and such. Learn to draw your ideas. Patents require drawings and writings.

Keep other people’s private info elsewhere. Don’t put your personal info in your journal because you must be able to share your journal with friends.

Keep a couple pages in the back to note significant pages you have produced. It will be an index you will use many times.

Hand write a story that explores a world you want to write about. Hand write and draw your book. Work out some characters and such. If it is good type it up and get it printed. I have used CreateSpace with excellent results.
