I think it all depends on what I'm doing, and what mood I'm in. Nice cold refreshing water is always good. Coffee is good for writing. Juice is good too, some times.

But I'd say my favourite is coffee.

[Josie]

If its a quick journalling session its anything from a soda to a beer, but for serious introspective journalling its a pot of tea and a teacup and saucer.

[Anthony]

As a friend of Bill W. and inveterate journal-writer at my desk, out there amongst the maddening crowd, in the quiet of a library, or even in my car, something playing background and low, it's always Joe.

[Colin]

always a mug of black, sweet coffee - on the hour, every hour and it lasts an hour.

[Sophie Brown]

I'm usually at the library and the NYPL doesn't allow beverages...I like Arizona Green Tea. The pizzaria across the street lets me sit there for long periods. They have different kinds of Snapple and Nantucket Nectars.

[Keith]

Knob Creek Bourbon....well, I am in Kentucky!

[Zach]

I drink tea. I love coffee, unfortunately I have ADHD and thus coffee (or at least too much) makes me fall asleep(actually, for a little while before I was put on medication, I self-medicated by drinking coffee). Anyway, currently I only have a Cahier journal, but tomorrow I am getting a thicker, standard pocket-size. I love these books <3!

[Lanzman]

Either a diet Pepsi or a VitaRain.

[melanie]

coffee or single malt scotch - depending on time of day and mood

[Kim]

Strong, dark roast coffee with milk in a favorite mug. Usually early-early in the morning either right before or right after reading the front section of the Times. Love the first sip of coffee and the first putting of pen to page. Ah, morning rituals!

[Brian Byrom]

Been an English man it has to be a cup of tea, though If I'm writing in the woods or down by the river I like to take a bottle of beer

[Harry Dean]

Wine, pretty much or black coffee without anything in it.

[Fred Berktin]

I bring nothing in fear of spilling and ruining my Moleskine notebook and notes. I may eat a very hard not quite ripe peach or a nectarine or a cupfull of grapes. That's how I write. With classical music in the background, I always enter my daily logs at night. Take short notes during the day into my pocket Moleskine.

[K-eM]

Diet Lime Coke or hot tea, often ginger tea or "English" style (w/cream and sugar). The Coke is what I like with my lunch and I like to write on my lunch break. The tea is when I'm writing at home and so I'll make a pot and have it there in a cozy to refresh/refill my cup.

[bogiesan]

ristretto.
There are only two baristas in all of Boise who know what it is and can make it for me so I usually make my own it at home.

[Johnny]

Anything moist and refreshing: coffee, tea, beer, tap water, melon, cereal, soy milk, chili, etc. :)

[Ali S.]

I usually write in my journal late at night and I usually partake in some hot cocoa at my desk with just simple music playing to get me in the right frame of mind.

[pe. richee.]

I do not eat/drink while I am writing. I made the mistake of doing that when I was still in middle school. I loathe the thought of spilling anything on one of my precious Moleskines.

[Сумерки Сага Затмение]

Money is so intangible, its almost like a promise and a piece of paper.
