Whether you ingest it via coffee, tea or swill those heart attacks in a bottle (uber caffeinated sodas), there’s one thing you can say for a lot of writers: The words don’t flow until the machine percolates.<\/p>\n

I have several favorite mugs, and each one serves a special purpose when I’m writing and this section will be devoted to other writers and their nursing cup of choice.<\/p>\n

I’ll start with my, \u00a0“I have to do a lot of work, so “leave me be” mug”.<\/p>\n

The delicate phrasing applies to me (don’t get distracted, Lane), and to everyone else (too bad my dog can’t read).<\/p>\n

This writer has to write. Stand back.<\/p>\n

Note: This mug usually works best without wearing pants.<\/p>\n

\"STFU\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The acquisition of mug is actually recent to my collection. It was given to me for Christmas (2012) by a photographer friend<\/a> who is also my neighbor. She knows me well, I think.<\/p>\n

What mug get’s your writer words typing?<\/p>\n

Share stories about your inspiratorial ceramics and drink concoctions with me.<\/p>\n

I’ll link your bio and cup to any blog, twitter or facebook page you want.<\/p>\n
