I normally just do a big text document, but I’m starting to think thats not the best method for me. It can be overwhelming to keep nice and linear over time.

    For me, the world bible is a separate document filled with hyperlinks that is specifically for keeping stuff straight in my head. I’ve got it pretty much down to a science now, mainly for when I run DnD. It’s hard to describe my process for it, because what I try to do is pin one whole train of thought to each page like an entomologist organizing their bug collection. It’s most like the wiki method, but in a way that keeps my ADHD brain from getting distracted.

    What I struggle with is getting organized before my rough draft. Ive tried free writing, but I tend to lose direction halfway through. I need some sort of organization to stay on task.
