a good writing system for the shower in my opinion would be a waterproof iPad attached onto the wall, removable ofcourse… is there such a thing as a waterproof iPad attachable onto the wall and removable when you need it somewhere else rather than in the shower?? thats what i want to know. but i think it would work…

Dorky as charged! I love the license to just get the words out that you’ve given us. The copywriting and blogs I love the most are the ones that aren’t technically perfect — I can spot a corporate communications staff trying to write cute and/or edgy, a mile away. This is why I find it laughable that so many companies require a marketing or english degree for copywriting, blogging, and social marketing positions (No one cares where the comma goes if the copy reads like the wind.)

Hey Sonia, thanks for pointing out nerds rule! I like how you converted passion into dorkism. Would never have made that connection.

I notice when my mojo is off. I lose that constructive, hopeful outlook and become all snarky and cynical. Who needs that stuff! B ad energy spoils an otherwise good post.

Well…here is one for your ‘shower’ problem. Sketch pens work fine on tiles that adorn your bathroom walls. So keep a few sketch pens handy- may be near your soap case or toothbrush- where you can reach easily during showers.
Scribble your ideas on the walls.
It will be better if you find a corner where water won’t wash out your ideas.
My wife has successfully adopted this technique to jot down whatever she remembers while she is working in kitchen.

For capturing ideas while in the shower, use a grease pencil on the tiles.

My idea for writing in the shower: before you get in, spray a large portion of a wall that does not usually get wet with shaving cream. If inspiration hits you, just write in the shaving cream! I do not know if this actually works, but I would be curious to see if it does!

I am a dork about books that have random maps and secret codes in them. And about random things like elastic bands that come flying through the air and hit you on the nose.
