Special “writing time” of the day?
I always hear people talking about their daily “writing time” which is a designated time of the day in which they sit everyday and try to write. Some even say they can’t write outside of their “time.” I’ve even heard of special writing outfits that people wear. Maybe I’m just strange, but I write whenever I get an idea, if I can. People at work are always asking me what I’m writing. During lectures at school I’d often catch a phrase or see something out the window and just jot it down. Details, especially. I think that’s key for any writers who don’t have amazing memories, as many of us don’t. As many concrete details as possible. It’s hard to stress enough the importance of concrete imagery in a piece. Fiction as well. There are few things like a well placed, concise and interesting image. And by concise I don’t necessarily mean in three words or less, but not a paragraph long description.
Does anyone else have a specific “writing time” or “outfit” or anything they have to have to write?
