Thanks for giving us a look into your note-taking process! These are my absolutely favourite kinds of posts, and a reminder that I need to up my note-taking game. I used to be a much more diligent note-taker.
Thank you friend and same! I love seeing people’s process. I will say sometimes my note-taking ebbs and flows but I’ve been pretty consistent for the past few years I just want to find a way to simplify it a little more.
When I'm reading or listening to music I write down lines that resonate, then I go back and look at my big list of lines to see what kind of themes or questions I'm unconsciously marinating on. Notes and journaling is my reminder that my mind is bigger than the world. Thanks for sharing.
I liked learning more about your process. I'm similar in terms of noting the connections between things I'm reading in the margins and am known to go down the rabbit hole to learn the history behind a thing or create a supplemental reading list to learn more. For some books I'll create a playlist of songs mentioned in a book but I've never thought to annotate my music listening experience before.
I loved getting a more thorough look into your note-taking/ annotating process. I think it's fascinating how deeply interwoven literature and music are for you but that they do different things for you. I'm always trying to figure out how I can remember more of what I'm reading and I'm definitely inspired by your process. Thank you for sharing!
I also love a good note taking post. I especially loved learning about how you review albums, an entirely different world for me! We need you to drop the Fauset interviews 👀

I love this, and do something similar too. I love that this resonated with you :)

I love that so much! I also feel like technically, the playlist of songs is kind of annotating your listening experience too!

Thank you friend! Thanks for inspiring this post but also making me think more deeply about how I do things!

I feel like we should write a book about Jessie! I still have so many questions even from another book I read where she had a cameo!
Don't tempt me with a good time 😂
