Takeaways
Being a morning or evening person when it comes to writing is not a matter of biology or habit, but rather a matter of trying different times of the day and finding what works best for each individual.
It is important to actually sit down and write, focusing on the output rather than just the feeling or inspiration.
Famous authors have had different writing routines, with some finding their optimal writing time in the morning and others in the evening.
Writers should prioritize their writing and find the time that works best for them, regardless of whether they consider themselves morning or evening people.
