    Well it would appear that he doesn't get up when he's writing:

I noodle a bit, during which my brain works out the story problem, and zing, I'm back into the writing again.

    I may be one of the few who uses writing as a break from writing....

    I imagine that practice has a lot to do with it. He's been writing 10 hours a day, 7 days a week for decades now.

    JMS Writes for long periods - how?

    I read in a magazine recently that JMS' rewrite for Ninja Assassin was done in 58 hours with barely a break to sleep and drink coffee.

    How does he do it? If I write for more than a few hours at a time my back is killing me! Does JMS have a really nice chair? Does he stop for breaks? Does he have a really cool ergonomic computer set up?
