What a great subject to get us writers...Christine,<br /><br />What a great subject to get us writers thinking of ways to feel good AND spark creativity.<br /><br />I'm hooked on exercise as a tension release--a great walk, bike ride or session of weights at the gym. Dancing around my house to country music is fun, too. <br /><br />As far as sex, well, I'm happily married, so mmm-hmmm. ;D<br /><br />And chocolate--how could I live without it? We romance goddesses demand it daily!<br /><br />best,<br />CathrynCathryn Cadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10714037225684245673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36453707.post-44388826527895325232011-05-16T10:53:07.182-07:002011-05-16T10:53:07.182-07:00Another possible endorphin-producer: hugs!

But I also like music. After watching American Idol every Wednesday it takes a while for me to go to sleep because my mind id buzzing with ideas and things. <br /><br />And I agree with the laughter...The only better high than laughter is sex. <br /><br />Fun post, Chris!Paty Jagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03257614436422105729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36453707.post-86677881204670177392011-05-16T03:41:15.905-07:002011-05-16T03:41:15.905-07:00The endorphin thing is fascinating. Example: I'...The endorphin thing is fascinating. Example: I'm a gym rat, always have been. In fact, I still hold a personal training certification. There have been numerous times working with weights while doing repetitions till burnout that I've experienced a high that can only be described as pre-orgasmic. No kidding! Also, less fun to talk about but more pragmatic, after any workout my mind is as clear as it will be all day long. It has been a major contributing factor to writing creativity. Add to that Enya playing in the background and that is what I consider to be the ultimate inspiration to get creativity flowing and the fingers hammering the keyboard.<br /><br />Daniel Lance Wright<br />http://daniellancewright.blogspot.com/<br /><br />"Paradise Flawed"/Dream Books LLC/2009<br />"Six Years' Worth"/Father's Press/2007<br />"The Last Radiant Heart"/Virtual Tales/August 2010<br />"Where Are You, Anne Bonny?"/Rogue Phoenix Press 2010/ ebook available<br />“Trouble”, short story/CrossTIME Science Fiction Anthology, Vol. IX<br /> “Dancing Away”/short story/Untreed Reads<br />COMING IN 2012<br />“Defining Family”<br />“Annie’s World: Jake’s Legacy”Daniel Lance Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224036446691457971noreply@blogger.com
