Please tell me I'm not the only one who has late-night writing sessions. It is ridiculously late and I'm still awake because I was writing. This happens to me all the time. I get really into what I'm working on. I lose track of time. I'm not sure what it is about the middle of the night that inspires me. But I have produced some of my best work when I should have been sleeping.
Do any of you find yourselves writing in the middle of the night or even pulling an all-nighter for the sake of writing? What is the appeal to forgo sleep to write? Is this something I should try to change?
Even though I write in the day as well, I still find myself night writing more often than I would like. I don't want to just jot down an idea and try to sleep because I don't think it will come out as good as it would if I just stayed up and wrote while the idea is new and fresh. I want to be a writer more than I want a good night's sleep.
