I couldn't imagine removing the words I've written, I have notebooks in all shapes and sizes going back at least 14 years with all sorts of writing ideas and random thoughts in them. Hope you enjoyed Burns Night, Rosemary! :) xAnita Chapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08643609708390860371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5278356786329973174.post-63168754623321386492017-01-28T13:59:57.977-08:002017-01-28T13:59:57.977-08:00I love notebooks and the thought of erasing them m...I love notebooks and the thought of erasing them makes me shudder. Sometimes I look back in an old notebook and take an idea and turn it into a piece of flash fiction or a short story.

I sometimes get rid of pages once rewritten somewhere else (from cheaper type jotters etc) but it's very satisfying going through lots of notebooks looking for those ideas and I keep my pretty books!<br /><br />Absolutely, Julia - on so many levels!<br /><br />Rosemary Gemmellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311840205603508422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5278356786329973174.post-60699689018299717072017-01-24T09:45:14.638-08:002017-01-24T09:45:14.638-08:00An erasable notebook?

All notebooks are so beautiful with their different covers and pure, new pages - all those possibilities just waiting! xxxJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10346863303904973315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5278356786329973174.post-87649773391812994552017-01-23T09:32:05.487-08:002017-01-23T09:32:05.487-08:00Ooh I shuddered when I read about the erasing note...Ooh I shuddered when I read about the erasing notebooks!!<br /><br />I love the way you came to write Mary's story - I think she would approve.<br /><br />Teresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5278356786329973174.post-42784588432585163682017-01-23T07:46:26.588-08:002017-01-23T07:46:26.588-08:00A writer can never have too many notebooks I say, ...A writer can never have too many notebooks I say, Rosemary. The idea of one you can put in the microwave to clear the pages is horrible. <br /><br />Some stories are just meant to be told, and Mary's clearly made a strong impression on you, so pleased you were able to write it.<br /><br />Newsletter arrived okay too. :-)<br /><br />Happy Burns Night.
