However, should your computer become compromised, your COMPOSITION notebook is then available to the thief.  I do the same thing in a text file but then encrypt the file and delete the plain text file.  My home brew encryption program will open the file and display the contents, and allow me to change them, however when it saves the file, it is re-encrypted.  I wouldn't recommend storing such data in clear text on the computer.

I have a small COMPOSITION notebook by my computer.   It contains all of the USER and PASSWORD information for every account I use. Each page is designated for a user site and there is plenty of room to write down the current password for that account.   And I do change passwords frequently.     I do not use a "password vault" nor do I allow Google or any other application to "remember" my passwords.

It may be slow and a bit archaic, but it is secure and that book never forgets a password nor does it ever crash.
