inAfter three years, my novel's first draft is still just a pile of notes.
My notes for a sci-fi story filled two entire notebooks before I even wrote chapter one. I was stuck for ages until I forced myself to pick one scene and just write it, no matter how bad. Now that messy scene is the core of my third draft, so maybe start with whatever note excites you most.

inSerious question: How do you spot founder before it gets bad?
Catch it FAST with daily feels. Feel the hooves for extra warmth first thing in the morning. I spotted founder in my friend's gelding because one foot was noticeably warmer. The horse wasn't even lame yet, just a bit hesitant. That early catch meant we could change food and ground fast. Now I SHOW everyone how to do easy hoof checks. It's NOT hard, just watching close.

inStruggling with when to use headbands in my bindings
Save them for heavy-use books, though @betty586 would fight me on that.
