Sings - 'What kind of fool am I?'
Having spent years lugging round either a dictaphone or notebook to make notes, found myself (again) without either today, so got out phone to type myself a message into its notebook - when lo, a thought! This is a phone; surely it has a talk message facility? And it has! And I never knew!
Now I can happily talk notes to myself when out and about and anyone watching will think I'm just making a phone call. Brill.
So I'm posting this on here to point out what a useful 'writer's resource' a phone can be if only you weren't as thick as me and knew all its features :D

*pictures self dictating murder plot into phone whilst unseen (and terrified) eavesdroppers listen in from the other side of the hedge...*
Such a plot has now entered my notebook of useful ideas :D
I overheard a potentially worrying conversation some years ago. An American man, out of my sight, declaring he had a date with a 10-year-old girl called Annie.
It turned out he wasn't American, he was an amateur thespian, who was publicly rehearsing/memorising the lines to a play he was in that evening.
Is there a way to use your phone to record a short interview with someone, do you know?
