I made a trip to the bird to see what writerly crises have been going on this week, and whew, is there ever Drama. (But when isn't there?)
Here's a nice friendly reminder that, although we certainly bring our eccentricities to the page, they're not necessarily what "makes" us creative. (I've had people tell me that my difficult childhood made me a better writer. Absolute rot - but it's popular to believe that extremes are necessary. Just curiosity and exposure will do.)
@Nick_Searles Hot dog! I'm rocking a green tea myself right now. What's your tea of choice?
(And congrats for being in your 60s! What a gift to have so much worldly exposure to bring to your creative practice.)
@MLClark PG Tips tea is my fav. I only do Brit, Scot or Irish black tea. And back to my writing happy hell later.
@MLClark Decades ago my weed had me rethink things and it did help in school. Brought out some creativity.
Quickly realized that was but a moment. Hit an age soon after in my 20's where that was that and now in my *cough* 60's I create best on tea.
