I knew there was a reason why I bought so many notebooks when they went on sale at the start of the school year. Normally they are what I use for outlining chapters in my novels, short stories and articles that I want to write (as well as countless other uses around the office like tracking supplies and so on and so forth), but now I have found a new use for them.
I have dedicated some of them to being editorial notebooks for my websites.
Yup, that’s right, editorial notebooks. I take the notebook and write down on a page what topics I want to cover on the website and as I get those topics completed I check them off (or tear the page out). This lets me keep running notes on what I am working on for each website with a single notebook dedicated to each of my sites.
It seems to be working fairly good so far and reminds me that I have to get things on one site or another done.
I want to build a place on a shelf for the notebooks to be kept, then I am going to cut strips of card stock to about two inches wide and create backs over the spiral binding on them so that a) they won’t grab one another on the shelf and b) I can tell at a glance at the spine what website each of the notebooks is for.
