Moving into the Maze

August 13, 2009

Below is my descrip­tion of our last move from one town to another. I’ve moved a lot, mostly in Ontario. Twice to another coun­try, though one was only for a few months. Change is not easy and it’s a real pain when you have to change almost every­thing and carry it in heavy boxes too.
Mov­ing makes […]

Spring Forth and Unclutter Yourself from Paper Pile Ups

January 15, 2009

It takes no real effort to build up a paper clut­ter. I’m famous, infa­mous really, for it. Once it gets built up get­ting rid of that clut­ter is dif­fi­cult. You can read about orga­ni­za­tion and buy a nice pen catcher from the Dol­lar Store but… you’re left with hav­ing to actu­ally sort through all your […]

Spy On Yourself

December 27, 2008

We all pro­cras­ti­nate about some­thing. Even those peo­ple who always seem so excep­tion­ally orga­nized and on top of every­thing have some­thing they are putting off. What­ever your rea­son for pro­cras­ti­nat­ing (time, energy, lack of inspi­ra­tion or just not want­ing to do it) the one thing we all know is that it has to get done […]

New Idea for Uncluttering

December 3, 2008

The next thing some­one needs to invent is a side­bar or wid­get that lets you list all your webrings, blogrolls and other groups you have joined in one wid­get which you stick on your side­bar instead of all those indi­vid­ual blogrolls, webrings, wid­gets and graphic linkbacks. I see it being some­thing like the wid­get for […]

Getting Ideas

June 18, 2007

How do you get ideas? It’s not like you sit down in front of your com­puter and auto­mat­i­cally you know what you are going to write about and how you are going to write it. Not each and every time any­way. There is some plan­ning and orga­niz­ing involved.
I keep a messy idea file. Most of […]

The Stashing of Ideas

April 9, 2007

Do you wake up in the morn­ing with the plot for the world’s great­est novel for­mu­lat­ing in your brain? Not every morn­ing, but about once a week I do. Often when I’m in the mid­dle of some­thing else: dri­ving, show­er­ing, putting away gro­ceries, watch­ing TV, talk­ing on the phone, mak­ing din­ner, plot­ting my great­est ever […]

Publishable and Practical

March 26, 2007

You’ve got the great­est idea! It’s sure to be a bil­lion dol­lar block­buster, rival­ing Stephen King and that other writer whose name you can’t quite remem­ber though it’s on the tip of your tongue.
But, is your idea a good one, really? Some of our ideas seem really super charged at the time, when we have […]

Decluttering

August 21, 2006

Clut­ter! There, I said it! Are you cring­ing just think­ing about it? I do. You see, I am a clut­ter bug.
Sit­ting in front of my com­puter I am sur­rounded on nearly all sides with a clut­ter of my own mak­ing. It’s 90 per cent paper, biodegrad­able even­tu­ally, if I let it sit in the same spot […]
