I just wrote a long piece on travel, part of an even longer series, and I have to say that taking loads of pictures has turned out to be incredibly helpful. The trip was five years ago.

Yes, I agree. I take pics as aide-memoires when I visit exhibitions that I have to review.

"Writers are blessed in one particular way: we can do what we do anywhere in any amount of time. With or without tools. While driving, our minds can wander and we can work through story issues. Or we can use that time to “clean the slate”—which is equally important." So true. I tend to use shopping trips to write articles in my head :-)

Ah! yes! I loathe shopping--all forms of it.

This is good. To take a task, and make it useful.
