Lately, I’ve become more and more certain that my most creative times happen first thing in the morning.

As soon as my cup of steaming hot coffee is poured and my laptop is fired up, I can write for a couple of hours without hitting the wall (that is, without having to start organizing breakfasts and ironing shirts and making lunches…).  The house is absolutely silent, pale light streaming through window illuminating my writing place, the computer fans ever-so-gently warming my legs…. and now burning them… But oh, it’s a great time to write.

I’ve had a few evenings alone at home recently, and I was so looking forward to the peace and quiet I needed to write.  Funny thing was, I felt completely uninspired.  I started to think I would never finish this novel.  I don’t think I wrote more than a handful of words.

But this morning, here I am again, fresh and ready with a mindful of ideas bursting to be typed.

So, I’m ready to accept it.  I’m officially a morning person (only with writing—don’t expect any pancake breakfasts).

What time of day do you feel most inspired to write?
