what to do

I have like ten plot bunnies and I know that workinh on ten fics at once is kind of the worst thing ever...so what do you guys do when you have too many story ideas?

And in the event that I can focus on ONE THING for once, I'll probably start posting things in July.

I usually run a poll. Or just pick one to focus on, alone, and sit with it for an afternoon and try to make myself love it. If I can't love the story after an afternoon, then I move on to something else for a while. If I fall in love with it, then I run with it.

I don't like polls, because I feel obliged to go with the top pick, even if I'm suddenly riddled with artist's/writer's block. I like your second suggestion, though! I'm trying to regulate at least an hour a day to writing. I tend to skip a bit, at least when it comes to planning, but I think that's because I don't want plot bunnies to run away from me. I think I will go with your suggestion though, and only take notes on other works if its absolutely necessary. Thank you so much!!

With my polls, I narrow it down to only the stories that I really, really want to write, like I can't choose what's next because I want to focus on both or all three.

Also, you're quite welcome! I use Evernote to organize my notes. Quite useful, if I do say so. That way I don't have fifteen physical notebooks laying around.

I'll definitely think of polls as a last resort, when I know I can get things done.

Evernote, huh? I'll try to check that out. I spend most of my "computer time" on a mobile device, so I tend to just stick to the multiple notebook thing, unfortunately. OTL
