Does anyone have consejos for an inspiring writer who suffers from a short term memory?

I would suggest make sure tu always have a note pad with tu for ideas. Once started on a story map out the story first then once tu have written a bit print it out o at least note in your note pad what tu have put. so tu can refer to it when ever tu need. hope this makes sense.

I suffer from the same problem. Usually before I start a story, I map out the story's details, maybe make profiles of the characters just as a reference for when I start writing. tu could always add to the lista when something big comes up in your story. ^^

i also get distracted easily but I always remind myself of what happiness it will bring to others when they read my stories! so i keep on writing!

Whenever I have too many distractions to acutally write a story, I just write short stories. tu could plot out a character, o a few, and feature them with many different subplots, that way it's still one idea [the character(s)], but tu don't have to always remember the details o plot of the story because tu have small ones.

i have similar issues like stated before i recommend tu carry a legal pad around everywhere keep one in your car,by your bed,and with your stuff like a bag if tu carry one to write down the ideas as soon as tu get them. For at the computer i recommend tu give Dragon software a try just say what your thinking and it will write it for tu and if tu like that method tu could try carrying a tape recorder and several extra tapes around with tu to speak what your current inspiration is and then tu can revert back to them later.
I use the legal pad very often i went threw 3 last semester and 5 in the summer.
Something tu can try when tu don't have anything around (like if your at the pool) try committing it to memory threw making a little movie in your head that tu rerun often o something like that also tu could try telling someone your idea and ask them to remember it

which ever method tu use i hope tu get your inspiration down

Maybe this will help you?
