Last weekend I spent three days in Philadelphia for FiberPhiladelphia 2012, an international biennial festival for innovative fiber and textile art. Three days devoted to looking at art. The exhibits were amazing, inspiring and eye-opening. When I got back to the hotel Saturday night my mind was racing. I couldn't sleep because I had so many ideas for my work. Remembering my last experience with a great idea (I completely forgot it by morning), I pulled out my Kindle Fire and made notes. It worked well. No need to turn on the light, just turn on the Kindle and type. And no worry about not being able to read my writing in the morning (like Kit!). The only challenge is trying to decipher the typos!

The Kindle Fire sounds like a really good thing to have. I have been working on a quilt for a challenge in my head in the early am hours, and I'm sure I've lost some of the ideas since I didn't write them down. Oh, well.
ReplyDeleteI know - I guess that's part of the creative process. We just have to have faith that more ideas will come!
DeleteI had some awesome ideas while on the elliptical machine yesterday morning.....it's tough to write and ellipse at the same time...even, I guess, with a Kindle Fire!!!

Yes, that would be difficult! Unless you use the machine with no hands!
