[QUOTE="dema, post: 278697, member: 5003"] Humm, all great Ideas. I like to take a big big big sketch pad, and white note all over the place. Nothing solid but just notes. Watching TV and connecting different comercials and shows also help, then just replace Marta Stewart with Goblin, and Picard with Ogre. But I think finding the right time to write is important. I'm the 11pm dude. I also like to play guitar or drums, or keyboard to get the mood going. When my punching bag was up I'd beat it to hell. The gym helps too. Walking at night, a favorite of mine (my GF thinks I frequent prostitues but I really really am thinking about DnD.) What else? a cup of coffee, or a beer with ice. I like to leave the last drop and keep it near buy. then I just snift the beer and imagine myself in a tavern. I did the cigar thing, but the computer began to stick. I also used o use mindmapping with he big o sketch pad. I also read various things (most current is a golf book - i hate golf- but the descriptions of the courses are kinda neat) Candles during the winter, and incense during the summer (if the AC is not on.) Ohh, i think better in the cold, you might not. When the balls are wet, my brain is not working well. Looking at landscape pics (or making your own using Bryce) is neat. There is also terragen for that. I like to stare at pics and imaging armies, and cities, then wonder why, what, who? But sitting down with a pad near by is a good idea, I tried a tape recorder but that didn't work well (maybe cause i had a big one and didn't really carry it around with me.) Songs songs songs, yeah these are great. I love music, i play and write it. Your list of songs will vary. Ohh going to the toy store is neat too. Looking at all the figures you get going. Lego used to be my favorite, I would be able to build any toy i wanted. that's about it for now. -dem [/QUOTE]
