Day or night writer???

Hi Writers,

So normally I'm not a morning writer. I work far better at night because no one will bother me and I can get my 2000 word limit down without distractions. But today as I am writing this I have to TRY and write 4000 words because I stupidly fell asleep while I was typing last (Its okay to laugh I kinda laugh at my own stupidity at times.) Anyway I wanted to know what type of writer you are. Day or Night? Remember sharing iss caring and I'd like to hear :)

My ideal time is after the morning dog walk & chores, then I feel free to write if there's any time left! Generally though it's at odd moments when I can fit it in. I think I'll have to try evenings because it will give me a longer chunk of time, but tiredness doesn't help my imagination & also the OH tends to feel a bit side-lined.

I write weekday evenings for a few hours each day, but I'm more productive at weekends.

Like Rosa, it's when I have time. But if I have time in the morning I am more productive than if I have the same duration of time in the evening.
