What Are Nightly Notes?
- They're the opposite of Morning Pages.
- So they're written at night instead of first thing in the morning.
- They are typed instead of handwritten,
- They're public instead of private,
- They're guided by questions instead of flowing freely
- A completed entry consists of six questions and six answers instead of three pages
- Since they are public others are allowed to comment on them
For an interesting variation on daily writing see 100 words.
"To be really great in little things, to be truly noble and heroic in
the insipid details of everyday life, is a virtue so rare as to be worthy
of canonization."
Harriet Beecher Stowe as quoted by Angeles Arrien
in Signs of Life page 63

Tonight's Questions and Answers
Saturday, August 31, 2002
It is 10:05 pm.
- who impressed me the most today? My sister, R - She's determined to get back to her weight watchers lifetime goal weight and she's recently gotten remotivated. She's recruited me and two other women to read Body for Life: 12 Weeks to Mental and Physical Strength. And of course she wants us to follow the plan. Yes, that has me doing/trying multiple systems at once. they're going to start and keep a group blog. I need to set that up tomorrow so that on Monday when we start it'll be active.
- what did I do all day? drafted 4 sections of the novel - 2655 words! worked on Memoir/Connection, aimlessly filed piles of stuff in various rooms
- when did I leave the house? about 3:30 briefly
- where did I go today? picked up J and went to Kroger (got batteries for my palm, honey, hazelnut coffee beans and some mocha almond fudge (comfort food)
- why didn't I get more done today?
I didn't even pretend to focus today. I rewatched The 5th Element while working mandalas on the first 3 pages of memoir/connection
- how could I have been more productive? Right now I'm changing this question to ?? How could I have been more useful? joyful? active? loving? Does anyone have any suggestions? Maybe every night it'll be something I wish I'd been more of. That sounds interesting. So for today; how could I have been more relaxed? I could have watched a second movie while eating a whole cup/8 points of mocha almond fudge. I still have time to do that!!!
