During the interview my friend and fellow writer MK, from Project Ehmkay Ultra, was amused when I pulled out my trusty notebook and pen and started taking notes. She warned me that the best things from the interview would stay with me without taking notes, a tip she picked up from Stephen King.
At the time, I mentally argued that I'm ADD and would never remember these notes without writing them down. As it turns out, I should have at least looked at my notes when I got home - or better yet, written this blog post, because looking at my notes now...I have no idea what some of this means. For example:
- Any abstraction of the human form is quite spooky.
- Clara says I have attention deficit something-or-another.
- Loss changes your perspective after you have nothing to lose.
- You have to be committed without shutting out anyone else's ideas because their ideas might be better than yours.
Out of all of those ideas, only one makes sense - and I've never even met Clara! And as it turns out, I only have one note taking tip which is as soon as possible after jotting down the notes, sit down at your laptop or wherever and expand on them so you know why the heck you wrote the notes in the first place.
In the meantime, here's the Doctor Who Season 9 trailer. Are you a Whovian? Who's your favorite doctor or companion? Let's talk about it in the comments!
