That was interesting...I couldn't figure out what to do with my morning pages today, so I went and read Chapter 8 (finally) looking for ideas. In one of the tasks, I found one: "write about me doing something I'm not allowed to do." My topic was 'have professional nude pictures taken of myself'. It turned into erotica, and oddly I had very little trouble writing it. I've always struggled, when writing erotica, with getting myself to use the necessary words. I would sit there for ages trying to think of words for body parts that didn't sound either clinical, crude or cutesy. This time, I just wrote them.

Another thing that may have made some difference is that this was a solo piece, pretty much. Duets (or trios or orchestras) are harder. I have to get into the heads of more people at once.
