you know what i'm doing? instead of index cards, i'm making business card sized character cards, and since i have about 160+ disparate scenes written, i'm making sort of a scene index, with just the first few lines of the scene on a business card sized card. Then I'm getting business card pages (found at STaples) a binders and presto! instant indexes. the cards are small, not too cumbersome and a little more long lasting than pages, which i have a tendency to lose and forget i have etc.
you should make a writing journal, for working on the orig!fic. i find that it helps me a whole lot, keep things oraganized, AND it keeps me honest about working. if i have this journal and i'm paying for it, i'm sure as hell gonna do something to post in it. keeps me on my toes.
