Do you write more when you write early?

[Ilikewaterkusa]

I notice that when I write early, let's say three hours into the day, I can type like an absolute LAD! I type faster; I type more throughout the day, and I have longer typing sessions. So I have this forum up to see if this is also applicable to you dudes.

On my days off I get up and start writing for as long as I can and usually a lot will be written. However, I can also speed through writing a few pages late at night when there is a very close deadline.

Yeah I think it is easier early in the day.

I try writing early but it always ends up with me getting great ideas at 3am

Thats because of the fact that the idea goblins come out at that hour

I read that a lot of people with ADD/ADHD get a second burst of energy late at night, which manifests as getting hit with ideas and motivation at bedtime.
Same happens to me, and I just try to jot them down, or write out an outline based on it before going to bed.

sometimes when I write late at night and come back to it the next day ... what I wrote just does not make any fucking sense

Even at work, I'm way more productive in the morning, so it's really a thing with me. Once lunch break hits and I get that "pause from the action," the momentum just dies or gets throttled.

I used to find that writing before bed was the best time because I had all my shit done and I had no more worries for the day. I can't write when I have to get shit done.

Now, I have a baby sucking my nipples before bed, so I can't write.

Not at 3am, but understandable and relatable. They come right when bout to sleep.

I go to bed at 9, but usually fall asleep at 11 due to me randomly getting ideas while trying to fall asleep.
