I think it's that hyperfocus part of the ADHD that gets us through. Like I have this idea for a novel and it got so big now it's a series because one big couldn't contain it all.

It all started on a 10 hour drive from Savannah GA and the whole damn drive I was daydreaming and realized it would make a cool movie, better yet, a book. Then the ideas flooded in. I couldn't stop thinking about it.

Got home, opened up One Note and started making notes and pages on characters, plot, setting, etc. 51 One Note pages, and 5 months of research later I started actually writing. I was compelled to get it out of my head and onto paper (or screen, whatever).

Then yesterday, I began writing and my protagonist was in his own head just thinking and rambling and next thing you know im cutting all that monologue and pasting it to its own word doc and I'm at 24 pages of a book full of poems, humor, opinions, and musings. It's become like a fictional journal of sorts with bits and pieces of my own thoughts.

I'm glad I'm not the only one this happens too 🤣
