Young Writers Society

Early in the morning/late at night. Don't know why, but it's quieter in my house and my brain can think better, and I seem to be able to just get into that flow easier.

Habits? While I've always used a computer for writing -- strange, no? Most people seem to begin by scribbling. I got into writing when I was much younger by using a very ancient PC. This means, now, I just can't write with a pen/pencil. I can type faster anyway, so my writing keeps up with my thoughts, and I'm so much more accustomed with it that without a computer I can't actually write.

I don't really have a set time when I write, it's usually when I have a revelation or I'm delving deep into interest of my story or I found something I want to change.

I'm pretty much going all the time. whenever i can write i do. not lately cause of college and stuff but usually i write all the time.

Headphones and music. I have to drown out all the noise around me so i can concetrate. I have them on right now so ican focus on this. I am easily distracted. tee hee.

I need new headphones though. mine are like dying. they are all taped together and the little foam pieces had to get sewed back on.

i write whenever i feel like it and whenever i get the time.
but like you all, i prefer writing before i go to sleeep at night and before i take a nap in the noon. on holidays when i have less school work to do, i write in th emorning.

I usually write late at night when no one's up. I write on loose leaf paper and stick it in a binder. Sometimes I can write during the day but usually find myself too distracted to write. Habits i have when i write is doodling in the margins while i'm trying to think to write next. ANd i never use a pen.

I usualy write when I should be sleeping. The only problem is that it means I get tired and then the next night, my mind is all buzzing but I'm too tired to do anything. I sometimes write when I get home from college and the house is all empty, I can stick on some music and write away. If I ever feel compelled to write at any time of day, as soon as I get my paper out it I loose all motivation.

I write whenever I have inspiration or if I get bored of drawing. Sometimes I wake up late at night and write down random sentences that make no sense when I look back at them.

Other times I write when I can't go further on a chapter so I have a look at the plot and make necessary changes to dialogues or the first chapters - which are usually the hardest to write for me.

Funnily enough, I've developed a writing obsession in the past couple of weeks. I write everyday, not necessarily the story I'm writing, but just something. Anything, now I feel like I'm missing something if I haven't written something that day.

Most of the time though, I write when I get home from Swim Team and I'm trying to procrastinate my homework, or I write when I get back from parties because I'm all hyped up to stay up late

It varies for me...... Summer I can write well in the morning... Winter is definitely in the evenings.....
And habits!!! Oh God I chew the tops of biros until they look mank and don't look very attractive! Lol. No wonder people don't like to borrow my pens!!!!

3 am is when i start coming up with awesome stuff. 'course, i'm not actually coherent at that point...

I usually write when I'm bored (physics, mwahaha). No, really, I prefer to write at my house. -But physics really is an exception, lol.

When I have a writing frenzy, I write everyday. Sadly, though, that happens once every two months or so. Currently I'm on the off-frenzy, lol. Haven't written anything to my story for the last month. Really. -That is, not counting the ending when I killed off my main character. Lol.

During the school year I can only write late at night, because during the day i'm too distracted with school, homework, friends, etc. During the summer and long breaks I write anytime, because I usually don't have much to distract me.

I don't like people reading what I've written either. I'm in college now so it's easier for me to write without worrying about people. I feel like my parents were always hovering over my shoulders, but here I don't have to deal with that. I usually write whenever I have free time. I'm surrounded by people really often so any time there aren't people around, I'm usually writing.

I write whenever I feel like it, and that happens most often at night.

My best writing time is definitely is either late at night or early in the morning, when I feel like the rest of the world has left before me or hasn't caught up to me yet. I can truly feel like I'm the only one in existence, even if it's for only a short while.

I don't think I have any habits when it comes to writing, except that I'll play and pause music while I'm writing something, because sometimes I think music will help and sometimes it distracts me, so I'll play it and then all of a sudden find it hard to think and pause it, and that continues during the entire writing process.
