^ Heh, to a certain extent!

Sometimes, that just makes me what to concoct extremely creative food items. Not necessarily the kind of creativity I'm usually most desiring of unleashing.

My creativity being sparked often has a lot to with my surroundings. When I'm all by myself really late at night, I find that's more conducive to working than the daytime.

Also, if I'm horribly blocked, I often need to go somewhere new. I people watch occasionally, finding little snippets of dialogue I gather from people near who are passing by, and sometimes those can spark an entire song or two; sometimes, that can spark the entire premise for a play.

I also find that when I'm writing songs or plays, I can't be in a perfectly clean space. I need a little bit of chaos. There have actually been times when the room I was in was "too clean" for me to be able to write anything productive, so I've gone into my closet and thrown clothes in the floor just so there was a bit less structure.

If I'm writing something like an essay, though, I find that writing it when very awake, during daytime, in a comfortable and well-lit room is the best. Any creative endeavors, and I really need things to be in disarray or my writing feels too sterile.

I'm naturally creative, so I don't need any preparation.

Viewing things in a different angle, such as: hanging off the side of bed upside down. Standing on kitchen counters. Laying on the bathroom floor (in the pitch black is optional).

eating something thick, say a burger, gives me that sense of creativeness.
in fact, when i was still a student, i always put something in my mouth, say a food, while i study. it helps my memory and my learning skills.

What do you consider a thick burger?

are you talking about something like a Muse?

i don't really need a trigger or anything to be creative, once an idea comes into my head, I just write it down for a song lyric or insert it into the novel I'm writing
