A few years ago, I wrote this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Meditation/comments/1ksha2/meditation_for_eliciting_revalations_from_ones/
(TL;DR: I frequently have valuable insights or other useful thoughts when meditating, but the essence of the practice is to permit them to escape. I asked if there are other forms of practice which might include both the meditation aspect which reveals the thoughts and a notebook or the like for capturing such thoughts.)

Over the intervening years I've been very on-again-off-again with meditation, and am currently in an on-again cycle. I've recently read How to Sit by Thich Nhat Hanh and this passage really stood out to me (note that by "sitting" here he refers to a particularly mindful form of sitting):

A Sitting Notebook

It can be useful to keep a notebook to jot down notes while sitting or to write in after sitting. If you sit in the same place each time, you can keep the notebook there. If you sit in different places wherever or whenever you can, then keep your notebook with you in a bag or backpack. You can write down the thoughts that come to you, the insights you have. You can also draw. Writing when your mind is clear after sitting can be very satisfying. You don't need to read it right away. Perhaps leave it for a while, so you can continue to reflect without judgment.

This speaks very much to what I was thinking of with my previous post. Does anyone here keep a sitting notebook? I'm excited that such a respected figure suggests what I was thinking of, and I'd like to find more on the topic, but that's the only mention of it in the book. Is anyone aware of any books or other resources that might go deeper into this very specific topic?
