Hi i just got to frame 1586 and the one Kanji one picture thing has ran out and i can find the rest of stoked's stories "dont really need pics just stories". Aswell i was wondering what sort of method works best for rt1. For example do i write key words down and the story and the kanji or should i type my storys that kind of thing and possibly in what order should i do this. Thanx.

I'm surprised someone more knowledgeable than me hasn't already answered. To my understanding, the project is unfinished, there aren't any more stoked's stories. Please stop asking.
You can write down keywords and stories if you usually remember things better by writing them, but most people just type in/copy stories in the study section of Reviewing the Kanji, and consult them from there.

The important thing is to fix the story in your mind, preferably visualizing it clearly. I find that writing the story out doesn't help this (though it does make me more likely to remember the exact wording of the story, if the exact wording is important for keeping the order of the components straight.) I try to speak each story out loud to myself. Try reciting the story to yourself with your eyes closed, and try it while looking at the kanji, one of those two techniques is likely to firmly fix stories in your mind.
Although RTK sells itself as accessing 'imaginative memory', it's really a mix, and you need to tweak your technique to yourself depending on how much 'imaginative memory' you have (if you easily recall the details of the plots of long books, for example), how much visual memory you have (can you accurate name the location of things in a room after just a glance, or are you a star at the 'concentration' style of card game?) and how much verbal memory you have (are you strong at recalling lines from movies or quoting poetry, for example).
If you're very word oriented and very -written- word oriented, then it may in the end turn out that rewriting the story by hand -is- best for you.
