I've gotten quite a number of ideas for stories recently, but no time to write them. I don't carry a notebook around so I can't record the idea. But, I've found, rather than forgetting the idea it becomes a full-fledged story in my head. I work out all the kinks in the plot and decide where the characters will be going with the plot I give them. Its wonderful. This didn't start till just a few days ago. Before, if I didn't write right away, I'd forget the idea. I'm overjoyed. Now rather than forgetting an ingredient, I make the perfect stew. Just thought I would share, because this is really big for me.

Just don't lose it after you write it and then become unable to remember it and re-write it, like Garrison Keillor talks about in the intro to Lake Wobegone Days!

You're assuming that I'll write it.

Ok, I wrote it. I wasn't going to. But I did. Its longer than my last story was, but it is similar to the other story. They both discuss different experiments performed by Life Tech Sciences, a laboratory. I'm thinking I could maybe, if possible, have it published as a series of linked short stories.
