Night Writing

     Last night, I stayed up until 2:40 in the morning working on my novel. Thankfully, I got a lot of it in, too, rather than just a paragraph or so. I think I'm moving past my Writer's Block now! Anyway, this is a little discussion starter that I think would be kind of interesting to talk about. When is your favorite time to write? When do you typically feel the most motivated and inspired to set down and write? For me, it is usually at night. I like to just lay in bed, get out my papers, and get into my story. Maybe it's because I know I don't have any chores waiting ahead of me. It's the end of the day (or REALLY early in the morning), and I can stay up as long as I want working on it.
     I just think it's interesting that this is the time that I enjoy writing the most. Of course rainy or cold days are really great for that, too, of course, but even then I can't write for too long without being disturbed. Sunny days aren't always the best writing times, either, because then I'm usually doing things with friends. If not, I'm doing something outside, which can be a good place to write, but not always at my house. Little Brother's friends come over, and need a third person to play in the pool. Guess who that third person is. -_- If not, they decide it would be so much fun to sneek up behind me and try to steal what I'm writing.
     So yes, all of these reasons and more is why night time is my default time for writing, or at least writing for long, undisturbed periods of time, like I like to. Your thoughts???
