There are many ways writers pull energy to write what they write. All different kinds. Some healthy, some probably not so healthy. I wanted to bring some of them up here to see where some people stand. I also want to know if you may have something different to offer to us as well that may be more beneficial.
Alcohol
Let's start right here because we don't have to stray too far from the big names on this one. Ernest Hemingway, Christopher Hitchens, and Truman Capote were all avid drinkers when in public, when being interviewed, and when writing. Hell the alcoholic drink "Bloody Mary" was said to have been created due to Ernest Hemingway. Who here dabbles with the liquor as they write?
Coffee
One I tend to dabble in myself and I am sure others do as well and that is coffee. The elixir of every writer at least once in their lives. The flavors that can be added, the additive of sugar, caffeine (which if you drink decaffeinated coffee you're doing it wrong), and cream, what is not to like about coffee? Well the bitter taste and the heat of the drink can be a bit off-putting to some.
Soda/Cola
My personal favorite and one I need to cut back on more, hence the dabbling in the coffee. Offers me fun flavors, sugar, and caffeine, but mostly it is cold. Some don't need cool and refreshing they require heat of some sort hence why the two options above are quite appealing. Although out of the three choices in the end this one can be pretty damaging if you don't have some exercise routine to keep your body and mind balanced.
So Newgrounds Writers, what do all of you enjoy drinking to give yourself that boost of energy?
