Join me for a brief, daily chat, talking about creating believable character portrayals by understanding why people do what they do, and the forces that drive them. I've been on a long diversion driven by your requests and questions into how a Zettelkasten works. Since you need real sources to illustrate a Zettelkasten in action, I am employing my new book as an anchor book and adding other, related, sources to illustration ideas interacting.
If you've ever wanted to start a Zettelkasten or you are wondering what all the excitement is about, this is the series to catch. If you want to follow along and get your Zettelkasten off the ground, you might want to pick up my book.
I had an epiphany watching this video! I have a shelf full of journals I have been keeping chronologically throughout my academic and professional careers and several other sources of my own information (some are digital) that I refer to from time to time. Now I see how I can easily link to those from my ZK! Thank you once again!
I love the redline and the note to the other card on your bib card. Thank you. Insightful. I plan on using it.
I'm glad you found a useful tip, Catherine.
Thank you. I have a lot of questions spinning around in my head. I’ve noticed now from your UA-cam video. I think I’m going to let this thought continued with a little bit of time and hopefully maybe some answers or clarity on your future UA-cam videos. Either way, thank you.
Thank you for continuing with me.
Let’s say that you are watching a UA-cam video or reading book and you create a Bibb card on the Notes. On the Bibard after you review you find that there’s an item there that you would like to put to your newsletter. You write that thought on another cardto remind you of something that you might want to talk about in an upcoming newsletter. Where are you filing these ideas for the newsletter? How are you filing these ideas for future newsletters?
Is there a cross reference happening with the ideas for the newsletter and if so, how?
@@ceafva It is very informal while I'm just gathering ideas. Later the newsletter issue will have a bib card associated with it.
Around four minutes you said the words “date recorded”. What did you mean by date recorded in this particular instance? Can you explain please?
The date the talk I gave was recorded.
I think this is a continuation of a previous question. At approximately one minute, you said “two types of bib cards“ one being referenced to taking notes from a book and the other is for content development for a presentation you’re giving to a group. I think I’m asking the same question. Please bear with me. Content development - shouldn’t that be separated from bib cards? Maybe not, because you might be filing it under your name in the bib cards? How is that working out for you? My mind keeps wanting me to go and separate that out into content development section. I don’t know why my mind won’t stop on that.
I've done it two ways and I like the bib cards best. The other way that I have done this was to have a section in my regular Zettelkasten for my project.
Focus: going back to your talk about your presentation to the group card. Isn’t this content development? Did I understand right that you’re filing content development cards in with the bib cards underneath a numbering system of some kind that begins with your initials? I would think that if it’s content development For the presentation to a group that that would be underneath a different group, box area, section. Did I understand this correctly? Would appreciate some clarity with this. Thank you.
Yes, I do most of my content development on yellow legal pads, but I log the process onto a bib card. I certainly could keep it in a separate area besides in my bib box. I will probably do that at some point if that section grows enough that it feels disruptive in the middle of my bib box.

I have a small tray that is my working box. That tray has dividers for things I am actively working on. If I get a new idea for a newsletter, I would drop it into my newsletter section.
