  The process the casual writer and the professional writer does to
prepare him or her self for writing a fanfic is most important.  To
some its habit, others its to get in the mood. Its the processes we
follow that may be what makes us different types of writers.

        So my question is this:
               What do you do to get in the mood for Fanfic Writing?

Think about it before you answer, you may even want to get in the
mood before writing the response.  The various answers we get may
enlighten you, astound you, or maybe even inspire you.

	Greetings.

	Yes, the right mood is the necessery option for writing.
How to get into it? It comes, when it comes.
	I dont possess the personal PC at home, and some weekends
i borrow one portable from my workplace to do some homeworks.
And most frustrating is when i sit at it, stare at blank 
screen with few rows of text and cant continue...
	Some good music cassettes may help. Sometimes its a 
good book, i read before, good cinema movie, i see. Not at 
all related to the story, im writing, only getting the 
'writing mood'.
	And sometimes there is so much wish to put the words on
the paper, that i send at t able after midnight and scribe
word after word, sentence after sentencs, and they all
come so easy...
