Scitchet Knits (and everything else)

Santa (my amazing husband) got me this for Christmas.  It is an elephant stamped leather journal with hand-pressed and hand-cut paper.  He had it shipped from India.  He managed not to give it to me until Christmas.  He wasn’t supposed to get me anything because he already got me football tickets.

This journal is extremely exciting.  After a few days of thinking it over, this has become my exclusive story idea journal. 

I always have a story bouncing around in my head.  I’ve become disciplined enough to start writing down an outline, but I’ve never actually written one out.  I usually just write them in my regular journal.  Lately though, I’ve been thinking if I ever do manage to finish something and get published and become a famous author, I am not sure I want people going back through my personal journals, even after I’m dead. ;-) 

I’ve got two new story lines going in this journal in two new universes that have been bouncing around in my head lately.

I feel like it is one more step towards actually finishing a story in print for people other than myself to enjoy.
