Start taking notes. You’ve probably forgotten your pen so use your phone:

Take more notes. You’ve probably forgotten your notebooks so use the back of a receipt from your butcher:

Take lots and lots of notes. You’ve forgotten your nice notebooks and your nice pens but there is always something in the stationary cupboard:

These are all notes for a review I am currently writing for Strange Horizons of The City’s Son by Tom Pollock. Once the review is actually published I might well revisit the process of writing it.
