I was talking about  relavent post I made just minutes ago about Liara and the challages she perensted to me for writing her,

OK, I guess I just am not following, but I’m happy it’s working out for you.

Oh yeah, that would inspire a rout, no doubt.

I've no specific writing spots. It's just me, the computer and the chair.

[lillitheris]

Could buy a squid and attach it to a string and a pole stuck in the ground behind you at just the right distance?

[dpMeggers]

I don't have a writing spot, but I do have an inspiration spot. I live near a park with swings, so I go out when it's likely to be empty, crack some music through my headphones and swing until a story/chapter resolves itself in my head.

That'd probably be more impressive than my copy'n'paste effort there ha!

Oh, and, yea, I don't really have a writing spot.  I usually do it on the fly at my desk, and have ideas around bed time.

No... I don't write on a fly...

HA! That Is BRILLIANT!

Thanks for that, dude. It gave me a much-needed laugh. On the downside, i need a new keyboard now thanks to you. Oh, and a new house, now that a Reaper landed on top of it. Damn you, Harbinger!

[dpMeggers]

So I have what may be an odd question: does anyone here know enough Latin to do a translation of a three word phrase from English?

[fainmaca]

I can give it a go. PM me with it and I'll see what I remember.

[Ursakar]

My Latin is a bit rusty but I can also try. PM me if you wish.

[dpMeggers]

Wow. I wasn't actually expecting anyone to know Latin. So either a greater proportion of the population than I expected knows Latin, or fanfic writers are an abnormal sample of the population. Huh.

Thanks a million, I've PM'd you both.

I don't actually know Latin. I've studied it a bit in the high school because my class had medical direction. I wasn't very good at Latin but I had good marks for first aid.

[MrStoob]

Oh, damn. Missed the Latin opportunity. Got my GCSE then dropped out of A Levels lol.

Conjugate the verb!  Conjugate the verb!

Oh, and I missed:

"Romanus eunt domus? People of Rome, they go the house?"

[Drussius]

I think a lot of writers have a place they go to write/think about their writing. Myself, it's more of a mental state than a location. I find I do my best work when I lock myself away in the workshop outside, fire up the old MP3 player, and line up a playlist of my favorite songs. Kicked out a staggering amount of text in a two-month period that way.

On the other hand, when I get stuck on something, I do find that a quick jaunt to the park with my daughter (or some Dance Central if she prefers) allows my brain to reset and reboot so I can get back at it. Family is a nice, calming influence for me.

Love that scene.

"Now, write it out a hundred times. And if it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off"

[Sialater]

Actually, inspiration hits if I'm thinking about writing while I'm cleaning.

[noxiuniversitas1]

Lots of potential where I am, too bad the weather only allows me to enjoy it 2 days a year... So unforunately, most of my creating is done in the shower. Or staring blankly at a screen.


Never took my own photos (hard to carry a camera when road biking), but this is a 15 mile cycle from my house.


This is just a 5 minute jog away.


And the gardens of the college where I sometimes teach

Shower ideas <3<3<3

[Sialater]

Showers work well, too.

Came up with my urban fantasy novel idea there. After mopping my kitchen floor, oddly enough. LOL

[MrStoob]

Okay, I'll stop now. lol

Evidently, I'm having a bit of trouble finding my own inspiration for writing

at the Mako

…

Someone somewhere must have studied the shower ideas thing…my theory without any factual basis is that the water overloads your external senses to a degree that trying to take it all in lets the other parts of your brain escape their normal constraints free to explore ideas.

(Probably also helps that it’s typically a small enclosed space with very little external noise and very few visually interesting things.)

Even though Mako time is good time forever

Speaking of the Mako... I have a hard time making any segments which involve in seem even remotely interesting. Anyone have any insight to offer?
