When is the best time to write? It depends. Some writers prefer early morning when its quiet and calm. Some writers are night owls and prefer to write late at night. Again, it’s quiet and peaceful then, too.
For me, it depends. I need quiet time to write. No noise, maybe a light fan blowing which has a calming effect on me. I tend to write when I feel inspired or ideas are moving around my head and I need to write them down. I’m a night owl and do my best writing in the night.
My writing is sometimes piece meal. I jot down notes, even on pieces of paper and save them because I do not want to lose my ideas. Also, I do make notes on my android phone, and save them to a file.
Again, as I have mentioned in a previous note, establish a routine of writing daily. It’s up to you to decide the best time to write. Even if its just a few thoughts. Write them down. Most of all, enjoy the creative process.
