Even though I didn't know there was such a club, I am a card carrying member. Currently I have to leave my house by 6:15 am, so for now, I am actually a 4:30 am writer. It is so worth the 8:30 pm bedtime. The quiet, the solitude and the darkness are my writing feiends. To be honest, the only reason I can go to bed so early is because I don't have kids at home anymore. It is all about what works in the moment.
I love this post. I've been thinking about how I can incorporate more writing into my day. It used to be evenings, but now I long to be in bed as early as possible (and often my teen and preteen go to sleep after me). Now that the mornings are brighter, I think I'll be getting up earlier, enjoying the silence and putting pen to paper. It's time. Thanks for the reminder.

Hooray for the 5amwritersclub!

So happy to be one of your many “Ride or Die” 5amWC pals. I couldn’t see getting my creative work done any other way.
