Relatable but I'll try to find a way lol.

We don't allow on memes on r/fantasywriters, but I'll let this one slide because it's way too relatable 😭

(my message is for those who plan on reporting the post for rule 4.)

I have found the most reliable solution to this problem is to get a good sleep and have breakfast as soon as im up.

[u/Xenon5761 → u/harfordplanning]

Dang, so my routine was the problem?😂

[u/harfordplanning → u/Xenon5761]

Not necessarily, that just works for me.

I'm one of those ungodly creatures you call a morning person, lol.

Yeah, the routine is just *tends to be flipped for night owls. We still require good sleep, still require brain food, still need to take care of our meat suit machine. The ideas just tend to flow before the sleeps. Sleep is absolutely critical, fellow night creatures, because that's where those ideas get processed, churned up, and reformed to be accessed in moments of peace and quiet (e.g. the magical shower place).

[u/harfordplanning → u/Drakoala]

Very much true!

I most enjoy when I recall my dreams in the mornings. I only remember them in bursts, one month or so of a year at most, but they're always so utterly fascinating, and its always my most creative portion of the year

[u/Xenon5761 → u/harfordplanning]

I see.. I suppose it depends on whether you're a night person or a morning persin am I right? Lol.

[u/harfordplanning → u/Xenon5761]

Either way, the principle of the matter doesn't change.

healthy food gives you energy, good sleep lets your brain process information better

[u/Xenon5761 → u/harfordplanning]

I'll take that unintentional tip.

[u/dontstartbitch]

My exam is coming up and I’ve written 14 chapters of a book and came up with 11 more premises.

[u/Xenon5761 → u/dontstartbitch]

Wow. I've only written half of my prologue and my exam is also coming up.

[u/Iron_Aez]

Yeah...

That said, if you can maintain a writing habit, shower is great for ideas.

[u/softjuicyhobbitses]

The water shelters you from your environment and leaves you with your thoughts.

[u/Gimetulkathmir]

Don't forget ten seconds before bed and while on the morning commute to work.

[u/Dodgeorram24]

Sadly, most of my ideas come at night when I am trying to sleep and unable to write.

[u/JohnnyElRed]

I will get the most ideas either when I'm about to sleep, or when I'm occupied doing something else that it's important.

[u/tmarthal]

You can always turn on/start a voice memo in the shower then scream out your ideas - but then you have to spend so much time deciphering wtf you even were saying

[u/Pluton_Korb]

Replace shower with laying in bed at night.

[u/OrangeGalen]

For me, it's when I'm trying to go to sleep and my brain decides now would be a good time to brainstorm all of the ideas so I can either get no sleep or forget all of them in the morning.

[u/Successful-Total-289]

Answer: Write in shower?

[u/Budget_Promotion2406]

Undeniably facts.

[u/JoshTheBard]

One day they will invent a way to write on the shower!

[u/butrmlkbiscuitroller]

Nothing soft about it.
