Scribbling instead of scrubbing?

Dry erase board for the shower?
I suppose then that it may be a wet erase board, but I'm open to suggestions. I swear that I remember hearing of such a product, but my google-fu is bringing up nothing.
I've seen the previous post about showerboard here, and I'm sure I could go out and buy a regular dry erase board and just mount it on the wall of my shower, but I think there's a specific product out there for this purpose. My best thinking is done in the shower and I'd love to be able to jot down ideas in there.
The wall of my shower is actually large white tiles. Could I just write/draw on them directly, or will the ink ruin it with ghosting? Is dry-erase ink water soluble? I suspect that ink won't write too well on anything as soon as it starts steaming up, or is outright wet. Any suggestions or thoughts?

I don't have an answer, but I just want to remark that I do my best thinking in the shower, as well. Why is that?

the tiles would probably be fine but you'd stain the grout between them.

Chinagraph pencils will write on your tiles even if they're wet, and you can clean them off once the tiles are dry just by rubbing with a dry cloth. Don't write on the grout.

Crayola makes bathtub crayons. They can write on wet porcelain and ceramic tile (and probably gel coat though we don't have any). They even work on the bottom of the tub under a foot of water. Clean up is easy, make the markings wet and a little pressure with a wet cloth. Doesn't seem to hurt grout but we have sealed our grout with a silicone spray, YMMV.
