I'm a fan of handwriting certain Prep assignments. I use a bound journal (fresh, shiny new journal for each year.) I do the assignments in order. I title each page with the Day # and assignment (e.g., "Day 4: Theme"), underlined across the top. But, like Elle - on hiatus, I'm a tech girl when it comes to organization. I *always* type up my journaled notes later. Typically, I use a WDC book item with a "Chapter" for each assignment. When I've finished typing up a page, I strike through the page with a corner-to-corner diagonal line, so I know the page has been transcribed. Not only does this allow me to organize my work electronically, but it also forces me to re-read what I wrote at least once. Since I don't transcribe every day, I'm often surprised at how far my novel project has come in only a few days. My plot, my characters, details about my world, all these things evolve little by little, but the evolution is huge when transcribing and rereading an assignment I did only a week ago. And of course, having my notes in electronic format allows me to tweak, rearrange, or duplicate in seconds. All that said, if you prefer to keep everything in handwritten format and want to organize it that way, I was amazed to find you can still buy these little gems that were so popular in my 80's childhood: https://www.google.com/search?q=trapper+keeper Cheers, Michelle |
