I use it for both my business writing and my creative writing. If a word or line or stanza that I’m attached to in a poem just doesn’t belong in this particular poem, it gets cataloged in my darlings file. Much like the acorn file, darlings has a record of every rescue from the creative cutting floor I’ve made in recent years.

I can take action without second-guessing myself too much, because nothing is ever really lost; it’s just relocated to the darlings file, where I can always grab it again if I need it.
