Write to live, Live to write.In the Dark of the Night
2007-03-21
My sleep is so messed up. I have always been a night person but lately I haven't been falling asleep until 8 or 9 am. I do most of my writing at night-there are less interruptions that way. I am also extremely sensitive to light so my schedule works for me. The only problem occurs when I am blocked or unmotivated and everyone else is asleep or at work.Tonight, or this morning to some, I have no motivation to write anything serious. I want to take a break from my book. I want to step back and get a fresh perspective tomorrow. I have many ideas but I know that if I write them now, with this lack of passion, all of my words will be meaningless. A writer should be above all else, sincere. A writer must feel every word, experience every emotion that your character does. I just don't think it's fair to my characters, which take on a life of their own inside my mind, to write under these circumstances.
Now what? That is the question I am facing. I don't want to watch tv. I feeling to lazy to read and everyone is asleep. Now what do I do. Thinking without distraction always leads me down paths I do not want to take. I could drive myself crazy with my thoughts. . .have to do something. . .have to stay busy. This post has taken up some time but maybe now I will try to get some sleep.
