Does writing in the small hours yield your best ideas? If your favorite time to write is just after midnight, but before dawn, you\u2019re keeping good company.  Famous authors like Diana Gabaldon, Toni Morrison, Tim Ferriss, and more, share this time with you. Keep reading to see whether any of these authors\u2019 processes remind you of your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cIt took me a long time to accept 1-5am as my best hours, which was the only timing that provided consistent progress.&#8221;<\/p><cite>Tim Ferriss<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tim Ferriss is a productive writer who has published four books over the past decade or so. He writes primarily non-fiction. For him, getting up in the middle of the night and working until morning is preferred. He says he sometimes turns on the TV and mutes it. This helps him fieel like he isn&#8217;t alone in his work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/diana-gabaldon-outlander-interview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Diana Gabaldon<\/a>, the writer of the <em>Outlander<\/em> series, has been working hard on her craft for decades and writing after her family has gone to bed is a system that works best for her. For many writers who labor in the small hours, the time is mainly about having silence and privacy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Toni Morrison is also one to write in the small hours of the morning, although she would keep at it after the sun came up as well. She said that it was always important to her to get up when it was still dark out and watch the sun rise. It was a means of entering the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Writers all devise ways to approach that place where they expect to make the contact, where they become the conduit, or where they engage in this mysterious process. For me, light is the signal in the transition. It\u2019s not being in the light, it\u2019s being there before it arrives. It enables me, in some sense.\u201d<\/p><cite>Toni Morrison<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other writers who consistently work in the small hours, like Haruki Murakami and Honore de Balsac, actually do \/ did keep crazy writing hours. They would wake in the dark of the morning to write, go about their days, then return to the writing process when time allowed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This group of writers may come off as being rather more serious about their processes. Possibly more rigid in their systems as well. But that makes sense. It&#8217;s HARD to get up in the <a href=\"http:\/\/wp.novlr.org\/?p=1969\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mo<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/novlr.org\/the-reading-room\/writers-routines-writing-in-the-morning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">r<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.novlr.org\/?p=1969\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ning<\/a> when it&#8217;s still dark. Those who do must really take their need to create very seriously. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are you a small hours of the night writer?
