[Bunny #1] Make a List

[kalloway]

Make a list.

Of every fic/art/icon/whatever bunny you have that you would like to write/create sometime in the foreseeable future. This includes bingo cards, big bangs, comment fics, exchanges, random plotbunnies, sequels, etc.

Detail it if you want to. You can be as vague as you like. No one ever has to see your list but you.

Do it either in your own journal or in a notebook or in the comments or whatever. I usually find one of those blank notebooks I bought with high hopes and then never quite found the words to put in it. They're really good at holding lists.

You can organize however you'd like - ficlets together, epics together, or by fandom, or by what they're for... But one list, in one place.

Take your time. Look through old notebooks, textfiles, e-mail, journal entries... Round up everything.

And hang onto that list. You'll need it.

(I am a 'sense of accomplishment' person, so I'll list even individual chapters on separate lines. Putting a check-mark beside 'Exciting Space Adventures Chapter 7' feels good, even if I'm immediately adding 'Exciting Space Adventures Chapter 8' to the list.)

Hi! I have a gazillion lists, but I made a new one (essentials, annotated). Because it might help to keep it all in one place.

There's a more comprehensive one here, where I'll store all my ideas.

I currently use a variety of services to store ideas or prompts, and have started last year to note down all of my ideas, just so that I don't forget them again. Some of them are five years old already, but I can't let them go completely.

If anyone is actually interested in any of them, please let me know. Some of the ideas will never get written, because I have no one to write them for.

Awesome lists! And keeping a list in one place is always a good idea.
