I discovered this beaut blogging tip quite by accident, and couldn’t wait to share it with you all.
Are you one of those bloggers, who thinks of awesome ideas for posts when you’re lying in bed and trying to go to sleep?!
Yup, me too.
It’s such a pain – I know from experience that if I don’t make the effort to turn on the light, and write it down there and then, it’s lost forever. Of course by the time I do all this, I’m even more awake than I was to begin with!
However, there is a better way to deal with these night-time ideas.
I only thought of it because the bulb in my bedside lamp had blown, so I couldn’t turn the light on to record my thoughts. “Record” … got me thinking … Siri!
Yes, I picked up my iPhone, pressed the button and asked Siri to take a note. And I managed all this in the dark, so that in no time I had rolled over, secure in the knowledge that I’d captured that blog post idea and could do something with it next time I had a chance. Within seconds I was back in the land of nod.
So next time inspiration strikes in the middle of the night, grab your phone and get Siri to do the work for you.
Oh, and you might want to give your partner a heads-up so they don’t think you’re sleep-talking …
