17 - Does alcohol intake influence your writing?
I can't write with alcohol in my system or in hand. So I occasionally (pre-COVID) would go to the pub so I could STOP writing after an exhausting day of too many words. But alcohol is bad for maintaining a coherent train of thought.
Pub convos are good for coughing up new story ideas—at least, for me: I'm more of a DM than a natural storyteller, but an audience lets me work out connections that don't surface when I'm solo.
