I agree that we do forget things and details fade, but I feel your passion for this secret is so strong that it will stay with you and reemerge at the right time when needed.Anne Duguid Knolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10332742931248440319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411231637771693377.post-30377982836895489982012-03-12T17:23:00.638-04:002012-03-12T17:23:00.638-04:00Secrets are great.

Lots of little clues but don't give too much away - need to keep the shock value.

So many times I have had an amazing idea pop in my head out of nowhere and if I don't write it down it does fade.<br /><br />This is one book I'm going to get my hands on when it's published. And I'm writing it down so I don't forget!<br /><br />Kathy<br />http://Kathleen Moultonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838396814110784284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411231637771693377.post-24239887487907786612012-03-12T12:21:23.599-04:002012-03-12T12:21:23.599-04:00This is soooooo exciting!

I find that if I have a great idea I have to write down snippets of it before I forget it. I've found notes that I've written years ago and will someday use for a story. In the meantime, I can sense your enthusiasm to do this, so get to it!NancyCLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10522834474683433992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411231637771693377.post-5117125255510784712012-03-12T11:03:07.082-04:002012-03-12T11:03:07.082-04:00It'd probably be a good idea to open up a new ...It'd probably be a good idea to open up a new document, write the whole thing down, then 'save and close' the document, and forget about it until you need it.<br /><br />If you don't write it down somewhere the fine details will fade and it'll lose the immediacy that is keeping it banging at the forefront of your skull right now.widdershinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04205462833259334647noreply@blogger.com
