Glad to find you here, SJ. Really digging into your zero draft ideas. My main problem when writing is I get notes and ideas all over the place, no matter how hard I try to organize the chapters and files. Off the page, I am the absolute model of organization so this really confounds me. Anyone have any ideas/things that work for them?

I've enjoyed reading Subplots 1. Thanks SJ.

The title makes sense to me and so does going with chronology as the frame to underpin what promises to be a fascinating flow of writing from your points of view, as person and writer.

Images as well as words: what's not to like? Personally the moonlight over the water from the Brighton coast resonates more than a star on on stage. Reason? The former is for me the readier launch pad for a story that may spark out of nowhere.

I'll look forward to Subplots 2 hitting the inbox next Tuesday. Meantime: come on you peer Compendiasts, do chip comment into this thread to ignite what could be a really convivial conversation.

If it's fun for you SJ, it will be for us too! I'm also keen to hear more about the queer book club...

I wish you luck in your new venture. What will this Stack address and speak to, beyond how you’re feeling and how much it costs to read the juiciest stuff? How about that queer book club?

Yes, I think I may well write about that…
