Those are my answers and I am sticking to them.
😀
And now for a one of those sounds that inspire me:
Neither Here nor There.... 
Good vid. My long suffering significant other (LSSO) likes My Chemical Romance. She says it’s the sentiment in songs like Not Okay, but I’m pretty sure it’s more to do with pretty emo/goth boys (would explain the Twillight interest).
Anyway, good meme I’ll follow the links back and use it myself. Cheers.

I got to ask, what is the cause of her “long suffering”?

I’m the cause of her long suffering. In as much as she’s suffered me and my shenanigans for a long time (and long may it continue).

I suspected as much, but had to ask. 😀

Coffee might as well be creativity. Sound is necessary, I think. Silence just makes me blank out and lose direction. I need something to latch on to and then my brain takes it from there. It was really interesting to see another person who loves writing’s mini-interview

I like this meme. And I’m with you on Stephen King’s book. I try to read it often enough that my hiney stays sore from him kicking me.

King’s book was the first one I read when I changed life paths (wow, dudes, way new agey!) and am not a fan of his work!
;D

Without coffee I would be in semi-vegetative state more often so I am with you there. Found you through the link on Em’s blog and I am glad you did it. It’s great to see how we all arrive at the same process of creating something in such different ways. While coffee I love, I can never write on paper–by the time I have written down a sentence I have lost the next ten. How do you do it?

Welcome to my humble blog Venus. Yes, coffee helps, especially after I gave up drinking (not that I wrote while I drank mind you). As for pen and paper, I like the feel of writing with a pen (I’m very “specific” about the types of pens and notebooks I use) and it allows me to do notes on the margins, scratch whole sections with a big blue X or simply write whatever I want. I tried using the computer but I always ended up staring at the blank screen without writing a single word.
