i heard something about writing at one time of day (morning?) when the creative brain is most awake and then editing at night (i think) when the logical part was more awake. does that work for you?

I wish I could say I have that much creative control over the process. I tend to write and edit mostly at night, but that is just how the domestic schedule works out.

For me, editing has to happen once the creative thoughts settle down, so I generally write a for a stretch and then edit.

My goal has been to get up and write every morning for an hour, but I have not really gotten there yet.

But yesterday, the images and ideas just flowed out of me onto the page... it was wonderful.
