So, you would like to write a book?
I have notebooks, jotters, scraps of paper, google documents, Evernote notes and even post-its everywhere! You get inspiration, thoughts, random ideas at any time, so when this happens put pen to paper, you might forget that awesomeness.

The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.”
