I keep a little notebook with me everywhere I go. I take it out everytime I read a magazine or a book. I don’t like using highlighter or writing on the pages of my books, so whenever a passage strikes me, I write it down in my little notebook. It’s a good source of inspiration and a pretty good way to start generating ideas, especially when you’re having a mental block. I just whip out my little blue friend and ta-da! Quotes and inspirations galore. More importantly, my books are spared of semi-fluorescent markers.
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.

May 23, 2006 at 2:42 pm (18 years ago)This is so me. I have this medium sized hardbound notebook I tote around and whenever I see something that I want to remember, or something that inspires me, I write it down. This notebook contains my to do list, reminders, et al.
Your the first person I know who does that too. Been doing this since high school. =)
