    Been doing that since I've been in middle school. Helps me plan out stories that I want to write... If I can remember them in the morning. It's also the reason I keep a notebook within reach while in bed. Just for those moments where I feel I have a great idea or passage and I need to get it down. Though I'm usually writing in the dark which leads to me needing to translate chicken scratch.

    Shoulda been a doctor. Coulda got more practice with that sort of thing.

    Side note: "What if" statements are your friend if you wanna do the whole making up stories thing. If you can't think of a basis for a story just go, "What if..... my computer suddenly became sentient and started to talk to me." Something like that.
