This week I’ve been pretty sleepy in the mornings and thinking more about my late night routine/productivity habits since that’s when I’ve been able to prioritize writing pages for a writing challenge with self-imposed deadlines. I’m just under halfway done with the challenge. Personally, I seem to have low creative focus in the mornings before work and the least amount of mental energy late afternoons/early evenings; plus lots of household/extracurricular obligations between 5-8:30ish, so I’ve been writing for this challenge/project between 9 and midnight.
Curious if all the Instagram followers you lost were just accounts that left the platform. I haven’t quit that platform or unfollowed anyone recently but I’m on it less and less these days.
Interesting, true, about start and end of day differences and how we each occupy those hours differently. I am thinking of this bit of morning as separate from my productive time.... (which is why limiting it to start makes sense to me). Definitely don’t want to lose the chunk of time I am using! So no gentle ease into the day happening for you? I hope the writing project is going well .... precursor project to NaNoWriMo? Thank you for commenting on the illustrations. I really appreciate that. And thank you for the A words!
Yes I don’t think “easing gently into my day” is how I’d describe the way I experience or navigate my mornings. :) And, yes! The current writing project coincides as an early, twice-as-fast version of NaNoWriMo, which ...although I like the collective energy of a challenge like that... I didn’t want to wait for November because I had a draft idea already brewing in my mind. If I keep up my current pace, I’m hoping I’ll be progressing into editing/revising during November (instead of first-draft creation during that month).
