For cigars it occupies the low level function of the mind. Slow, deeper breathing means better o2 circulation to the brain, allowing your more creative aspect to better attend to the task at hand. I love smoking amd writing, and drinking liquor.

A lot of people smoke. Why ask about writers specifically? I doubt a statistical analysis exists that finds a clear link between writing and smoking and how they are inseparably connected with another.

it's the combo of nicotine plus the pleasant experience of the tobacco itself, just using say a nicotine patch wouldn't be the same. too bad cigars can give you cancer tho

I don't know about writers, but I like small "rituals" in my life, like rolling and smoking a cigarette, preparing pipe, brewing tea, rubbing one out to bondage porn, you know, just little things.

Yes, some of the faggier Ivy League kids treat patches and gum like a less damaging Adderall. You feel exhausted probably because smoking it leads to short term oxygen depletion (duh) but nicotine itself is probably making you way smarter and more focused throughout the day than you really are. You get two hours of a pure nicotine high and like 12 hours of cotinine for cognitive enhancements. Turns out those nicotine receptors in your brain really like their oil.
