Yeah, the book is full of exercises. It's really a hands on thing. I have to say that the writing I did in those exercises certainly had a different quality to them. Good point, Jeff.

It makes sense that some creative writers would use mind mapping, since a common and more "sequential" technique is the use of index cards. I'd opt for a mind map any day. :-) I’ve never come across the book, Tim.

It was one of the first books to introduce mind-mapping, and it has a novel twist that I haven't seen elsewhere. The technique is for creative writing. Start by mind-mapping freely. When you *feel* the first sentence, or some other sort of gelling happening, then you start writing. Your left brain starts making a story out of the previously chaotic map and weaves the map together in a most synchronistic way. Hi Jeff,

It's a lot like ThinkMap's <a href="http://www.visualthesaurus.com/" rel="nofollow">Visual Thesaurus</a>. Your comment gave me a chance to revisit TheBrain. It looks like they've been adding a lot of functionality. I appreciate the tip. Thanks, Lindy –
