For those who post here regularly, just out of curiosity, how many of you find yourselves more creative when you're in a relationship, vs. not?
And how many find their writing goes to hell when they're in a great relationship? (This would be my category!) |

i write better when i do have a muse, but its still not really happy by any means...and even with out anyone i guess the writing doesnt stop it just gets sadder...

I am creative when I am withsomeone, when I am not I have writers block.

For those who post here regularly, just out of curiosity, how many of you find yourselves more creative when you're in a relationship, vs. not? And how many find their writing goes to hell when they're in a great relationship? (This would be my category!) My production is rather inconsistent. I did 16 pages on Monday, 12 one day last week. Sometimes I'll go weeks without writing anything. But I have noticed it's easier for me to get a handle on certain characters depending on if I'm in or not in a relationship. Think it has something to do with identifying with their state of mind.... |

For me it seems i'm more apt to write something about loss or pain than love or happyness. Its like the words don't come to of as freely. But for example angellight her love writes are the kinds i want to live. I struggle to conceive anything that compares.

I write a lot about my brother and my friends and my life so having someone in my life doesn't really change what I do in my writing other than to change the tone at times.

The tone of my writing will probably change some. I have yet to write while being in a relationship so I cannot be for sure but I imagine I write what I feel and I would feel differently in a relationship.

Most of my inspiration comes to me from external stimuli. So who I interact with will most likely influence my writings and creativity in all areas.
I have never been in a bad relationship, so I have never been negatively affected by a relationship. I have been negatively affected by other people I have been around though. However, even when I am negatively affected I still seem to be creative. I just may tend to create darker writings, etc. But they will still be creative. In fact, I can create some pretty dark stuff, but in truth I prefer not to. I see too many negative things in life already. I prefer to create brighter things. After all, if I’m the creator why not create good things. ![]() I seriously doubt that I would even become involved with anyone who would drag me down at this point in my life. It’s just highly unlikely that I would become involved with a negative person. Unless of course, something happened to change her after we had become involved. That’s always a possibility. In the meantime I’ve solved the problem by just not becoming involved at all. ![]() |

i get energy and am stimulated by those around me
and those i interact with in email or discussions. various people motivate me with their perspectives and often lead me to want to express myself - express a thought or point of view which has been percolating for some time...or sometimes just occurs to me. all interactions cause this - inspiring me in different ways. of course my mood and frame of mind affects how i express myself generally at a given time. the stronger and/or closer the relationship then the stronger and more intense the desire to express.... so very intense relationships tend to bring on more - but sometimes it is just an accumulation of thoughts and feelings on a subject which finally spills over. that is what it is like for me when i want to express myself. |

Humm I had to think about this for a minute first then I realized that in the last two years since I started writing humm I have not been in a persay relationship. That is I have dated and at times thought maybe the one I was talking to may be more in my life but not a true relationship. So I have no clue if it would make a difference or not.
