I always try to read at night, because it gets me kind of tired.

I'm usually in bed by midnight.

I never manage to get to bed early on Sunday night but this doesn't matter, as I don't know one level of exhaustion from another.

I am awake a lot of nights.

If I was to go to sleep before midnight, I would feel weird about myself, like I wasted a day. My most productive hours are between midnight and five.

I typically wake up at 5:30, and that's my time. I read newspapers, have coffee.

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'm up at dawn. I practically fall asleep at dinner.

I love getting up in the morning with nothing else to do except write.
