E.g. if it is humid or hot you are less likely to either feel like writing, or if you do write, not write at your best (unfortunatly it is the same for people doing exams).

I agree...it is always hot and humid down at the US southeast coast in the summer, so maybe that's why my writing is suffering.

Or in my case, do something quasi-related to the story but in a different creative vein.

Thanks for the tip...maybe I really should get back to that music, huh, instead of staring at the blank screen and trying to write? I really needed the motivation, so thank you.
