Writing sober vs. Writing under the influence

[GUDELJ]

I know a lot of people here write while under the influence of something, whether it be weed, alcohol, molly (muff), shrooms, etc you name it


There’s also people here such as myself who only write sober.

How well do you write sober vs writing whilst under the influence of something?


Like I’ve tried writing while I was drunk and it’s pure shit, then again if I drink some coffee then brainstorm I’m able to jot down a bunch of concepts and punches etc


My questions is simple. Are you a better writer on drugs or off? Do you take shit in order to write better? Do you NEED it?
