I rise near dawn, make a strong cup of coffee, wander to my desk and come fully awake by reading something written the day before.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I usually get up between 7 A.M. and 8 A.M., have coffee, and go right to work. It's really important not to get sidetracked in the morning so I'm still in that dreamy state for my writing.
I typically wake up at 5:30, and that's my time. I read newspapers, have coffee.
I get up, go and get a coffee, and go do the crossword - I'm loyal to one particular paper, the 'Guardian' - and that's my idea of a perfect morning.
I get up every morning early, when the sky is red, and write for 10 hours.
I'm up at dawn. I practically fall asleep at dinner.
I wake up in the morning, walk downstairs, and just bang on the piano and write about what's going on in the world around me.
I love getting up in the morning with nothing else to do except write.
I'm a morning person: if I don't get up, put the coffee on and get to my desk by 8, the day has already lost a lot of its promise.
I wake up very early in the morning. I like to start in the dark, and I never work at night, because my brain is evaporated by 4 P.M.
I wake up with the story in my head, so I really like to be at my desk about five minutes after I wake up. So I don't get dressed. I put on a bathrobe, I make tea and sit at my desk.
