When it comes to writing, do you do your best burning the midnight oil or working just after the crack of dawn? I am very much a night owl and do my best work between 10 p.m and 2 a.m. Often, I don't get to bed before three or four in the morning (thankfully, I do not have a day job that requires me to be up early).
I like to work at night not only because it's when my creative juices are flowing, but also because the house is very quiet and I'm free of distractions (even little noises like the TV or music playing drive me nuts when I'm trying to write). Sometimes I give myself a bit of a break on weekends by taking the night off from working on my books, and relax by playing an online game or video surfing on Youtube (which for me can be VERY addictive, so I try not to do it when I need to work on a book, unless I'm watching videos related to the project I'm working on, i.e., something with historical footage for a history-themed novel.) Then I'm all rested up again to start writing the next week.
So what about you? What is your best time to write?
