This is an example of what they look like.
I am working hard on keeping up with my ideas. I have been logging down topic idea after topic idea. I think the mind map is a great option for generating as well as developing ideas. I have a few going right now. If you have never mind mapped, you need to try it. It works on any topic and issue. I use them often, to clear my head. Being a creative type, my mind can generate ideas so fast that it can be very overwhelming. Not to say all the ideas my mind generates are good ones. They just keep popping up in my head. Mind mapping also allows you not to loose valuable tidbits. Among a lot of unusable information there can be great little nuggets to hold onto. Even if it is just stopping and mind mapping during a journal session. It has helped me clear my head. I tend not to forget ideas either. It helps me spark new memories too. It also can help in the writing process. I consider it a fluid form of an outline. Your main topic (center of mind map) can become your story theme. Your secondary topics your chapters, or paragraphs, and so on. NEAT!!
