I am a published writer (fiction and non-fiction); I also have ADHD. I get about five story ideas a day. I want to write all five but I obviously can't. I finally tried a strategy where I start writing one on a yellow pad, then when one story takes the forefront, I just draw a line under what I've been writing and start the next story, then go back to the first or ahead to the third -- in other words, I just follow my thought process. This seems to work ok, but is there a way for me to stick to one story at a time, and keep the other ones 'in storage' even though they keep popping out? I take meds already by the way.

I know how ya feel man. Well you already know you have a problem and have adapted a way to work around it and that's great! My suggestion would be to get 5 or 6 different notebooks in different shapes and colors and take turns writing in them. Don't try and fight the urge to write 5 different stories in one day. By the end of the month you will have 5 great stories!
