I would like to know everyone's top super idea's for organising stories and idea's on your p.c.

Paper work is easy to organise. I find organising P.C work much harder.

Can you help me to become a more organised writer?
Folders help. Right click and click on new folder, give it a descriptive name and slap the relevant crap in there!
I agree with both, DirtyMartini, and Gurlyboy. Since I also write fiction, I have folders in "My Documents" on my P.C. set aside for those. For my erotica, I simply save the story in "My Documents." It helps me keep them straight that way.

If you loved me,
You would be here with me.
Don't lie to me,
Just get your things.
I've made up your mind."

Yeah, I agree...everybody should have a folder called "Relevant Crap" on their computer...

I just hit "save" and they go into my Documents folder on my computer where they are listed alphabetically...

I can't imagine it being too much easier than that really...

I have 5 folders: Stories, poems and wips (works in progress, not stories about whips lol) and once they've been published I put them in a folder called either "published stories" or "published poems". I am kinda ocd about how they are organised.
I try to give unique folder names to all my various works of drivel. Perhaps a few of these will kick start your imagination Honey. You gotta start somewhere when cleaning up the house, yanno.

I allow Windows 7 to arrange these folders alphabetically, but then with a modern word processing program, you can quickly index and locate the last folder/story you edited by date, size, type (etc...)

Have fun, Honey ~ That's the key to this writing hobby gig.

I've wrote your idea's down. Love the story suggestions haha made me laugh. I will organise them alphabetically. Cheers WMM thank-you. x
I had to get myself organised when I started submitting stories to a lot different markets. I have a top level folder called 'Stories' which contains all my erotica. Within there I have... you guessed it, all my stories - from a few lines of ideas through to completely edited material ready for market. I then have a 'Submissions' folder into which I move the files as I submit them, with a separate folder for each market. In addition, I use Sonar3 () to keep track of the submissions, so I can quickly find-out where I'm up to. I have a spreadsheet of any money due and whether it has been paid. Finally, I have a backup routine: a batch file which I run after I do any work which copies this to a pen drive and online storage.
AT, I like the idea about separating them if they have been submitted and a spreadsheet to keep track of where and if money is owed. I may have to try that

I do actually have a folder called "crap" on my computer but it's full of porn. Not scat porn, just regular everyday porn
