![]() ![]() When you’re super stressed (you just discovered a gaping plot hole, you can’t think of a title, you realize the chrononlogy of your plot is all messed up, your pub date has been postponed due to supply chain issues, etc, etc, etc) even a small bite of dark chocolate, preferably with almonds, helps. Great for when you’re frustrated and need to stress-chew. They’re serious snacks-substantial and not too salty. These are handmade Pennsylvania Dutch pretzels I get at my local supermarket. Very Very Cherry is mouth-wateringly tart, Razzmatazz Berry is complicated and delicious, Perfectly Peach is satisfying-but the best is definitely Mango Tango, which I save for when I’m writing something especially tricky. I toss the strawberry and watermelon pops because they’re too sweet for my tastebuds. These are virtuous-vegan, gluten-free-lollipops in a variety of fruit flavors. Occasionally I’ll switch to chai tea with milk, but 95% of the time, when I’m writing I’m sipping green tea with mint. Can’t be plain green tea, or green tea with any other flavors, like lemon (bleh). Seriously, I can write anywhere: on a moving train, at a Starbucks.īut lately, when I sit down in front of the computer, there are a few non-negotiable must-haves: I’m basically a low maintenance sort of person-and a low maintenance sort of writer, too.
