Writing Quirks

[author_by_night]

Writers are quirky, no doubt about it.

If you write, tell me some of your quirks. We all have quirky writing habits - whether it's how we write, how we get ideas, etc.

Anonymous commenting is allowed.

Go forth, but don't multiply, because writing and mathematics don't mix.

(... I'm weird, okay?)

It's almost impossible for me to concentrate unless I've got dead silence or LotR (movie or soundtrack) in the background. I cannot discuss what I'm working on until it's practically finished. I write best in Sharpie. I am very productive in the bathtub. Lit candles help me write. I like to have a cold drink on one side of the computer and a hot drink on the other side. I make faces and mouth out my dialogue. I'm picky about ink pens. Putting on a ring makes me work harder. When I get to the point at night where I've just looked at it for ten minutes...man, it's time to go to bed.
