I've made a few requests of old and new authors alike...

In the time that I've been here, I've requested a few (more than 100) things for writers to research (or not) and then write about.

Why? Well quite simply, writers (sometimes) need a "creative spark of inspiration!"

I'm gonna take a stab here, without doing research - honest!, on what the "Mozart Effect" is.  A percussion teacher at my jr, high school told me I had the Mozart Effect, and I looked at him blankly.  "You know how to play drums without being taught," he said.  This lead me to take more interest in Mozart.  So, I'm going to say (I'm really going to look stupid if I'm wrong, eh?) the Mozart Effect is a natural musical ability.

Hey Constant Walker... um... I don't wanna say you're wrong... :) You may have your own Mozart Effect... :)

See these links for more info on "The Mozart Effect" ... and when and if you use them in answer the request, they all have at least a google PR of 5. :)

Wow! That percussion teacher was WAY off, eh? The true meaning has nothing to do with music. Odd.

Well, there you go...

These are EXCELLENT ideas to get the creative juices flowing. Reading each of those titles made me think of others in the same vein. One topic springboards to another branch on the same tree of thought.

Great job, CW!!!!!!!!!
