Do you wake up with the rising sun to pen words fresh out of dreams, or do you let all the material and action of the day mix with your mind as it slowly shuts down at the end of the day?
And would you recommend this time of day to other writers?
you can message me with anything: questions, review requests, rants are you a green room knight yet? have you read this week's Squills?
My favorite time to write is at three in the morning, when the entire world is quiet. The birds haven't started singing yet and you can feel the sun creeping up into the morning sky. I always have some dr. pepper next to me to drink to help me fight the sleep that has painfully fallen onto me. I still continue to type, scribble, and think. This is when I feel most alive.
(this turned out deeper than what it was supposed to be. oops.)
Rainy autumn afternoons when I can pull on a sweater and drink some tea at the dining room table with my laptop and spend the hours reading, researching, and writing. Those are the days I live for.
For me it is at night. I think it is partially because that is when everybody winds down and I have a lot of focus without all the background noise. And I wouldn't recommend a time to others, because it really varies between individual.
I usually get the urge to work on my novel at about 6:00, which is a terrible time to start writing because it is also the time when my family eats dinner- and they don't like my "Leave me alone; I'm writing; I don't want to be interrupted to eat!"
But that's just my novel. Everything else I write every time I get a chance.
