I wouldn't know because I don't drink or use drugs for anything other than illness or injury. I feel no guilt about it whatsoever. It's my choice and it's nobody's business one way or the other. *shrug*
In the same vein, though, when I'm not clear-headed (say getting sick or very tired or just stayed up too long so I'm not quite myself the next day) I find it much harder to produce anything that I consider worthwhile. The actual words are decent enough but I'm much, much harder on my writing when I'm not feeling good. Inspires me to take care of myself.
Yay for reaching the climax! That's always fun to write. I switched off of editing the Worldbuilding Wednesday post because a so-called short story seized my brain. I thought when I started that it'd be 3000-5000 words. Nope, it's already topped 11K and I've got one chapter left on it. I simply cannot write short. I just can't. *wry laugh*
Go with your inspiration! Sometimes it's just not worth it to battle it. ;)
