Yeah...I just carry around a cheap, purple 70 page notebook that doubles as a place to jot down how the day was, how I felt.

I used to. Now I don't so I just write on any piece of scrap paper. As a result, my binder of lyrics is a collection of backs of envelopes, hotel stationary, receipts... everything. I'm sure I've lost stuff along the way doing it like this, but i get inspiration at the oddest times.

And nowadays, I work full time as an accountant so I have my computer all the time so I"ll usually just type up lyrics/poems as I think of them.

Somehow, though, it feels like typing up my thoughts is so much less "personal" than if I handwrote them.

No. I write solely on the computer because my handwriting is absolute crap. It makes my ideas seem stupid since they come off strewn like a little kid, and if I can't take myself seriously then why should anyone else?

I only do my work on the computer. While I'm doing my schoolwork or anything if I happen to think of a great idea I pray I still remember it when I get on the computer.

I have my story saved in several places on the computer, but I also carry a notebook for brainstorming, plotting, and so on.
