I was wondering if there is a specific pattern in your artistic productions, i mean if you have a certain period where you tend to be more inspired or with that urge to write/paint/play (whatever it is your artistic release). I just thought it would be interesting to know. In my case, for instance, is usually during the night that I tend to write more.

Share your thoughts on this please

Its a choice. I do, I find it very freeing, in a way, to release all the anger or love or what feeling it might be.

I cant do it no metter what, i cant express in paper what i think about person what I like or love

We all have things we can't write about even if we want to.

I also tend to be more creative when I'm with someone... I mean.. like a GF.
What can I say... Women inspire me.
I'm a worthless romantic.

i didn exam the words that i like to say but i think this way cause i saw and read somthin about it ...
i think men will be creative when they r with a prostitute or somthin! i dont know why it happens but its like that i think!
but its so hard for me to understand how can u be creative with ur GF, maybe ur thoughts r a little different with me! for example i love depression sometimes but with a GF u cant be Depressive. so plz explain ursef.

And you must write about your "muse", I think that is a common thing to do.

Very common. Probably that's why I dont' write or draw much when I'm alone.

Hi guys, hope this grave-digger (aka m-e) ain't disturb the silence here

Night-time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness wakes and stirs imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defences
helpless to resist the notes I write
for I compose the music of the night

My fav part from the Opera's Phantom. It does in some way testify the results above huh?

Regarding the nocturnal-habit, let's consider the following, kinda personal ideas of mine, won't you?

1/ Inspiration flows in any time (which some in this thread have mentioned), but at night, we seem to be in greater control of our time, right? Especially when we're already into some sort of career, it's not easy at all jotting down the ideas and taking in the orders at the same time. When we study, it's unlikely that we're well given a lot lot of time pondering some matters only for ourselves, then?

2/ Staying up late at night tends to be over-spreading across the youngsters, with internet at hands. Can it be viewed as another factor that keeps us linger a little bit ... longer at night? To write, to search info, to read online... I think it's obvious for my own case.

3/ In case we gain our ideas listening to metal or something a little more weird, it's really better, methinks, being left alone. They ain't leave us alone unless we spare them some .. peace hehe

PS: Likely my debut post here, hope it'd be well received here. Hail to you all!

Well as an Architecture student I only really have time to work during the night and usually work for about 3 days without sleep. And the best times to design is late at night when I play my music real loud (think neighbours are too scared to tell me im pissing them off lol) and I dont have other disturbances

yeah too much booze ruins creativity. 2 or 3 is usually my limit if i actually have things to do or school to attend. but if i smoke a lot of pot, then my creativity in terms of writing essays skyrockets.

I hate the day... there's a lot of living people and hapiness around... :/

In the night, the 90% of the people is dead, there's silence in the city, and you can do everything you want.

Absolutely an interesting post!

Me: Night.. No doubt.

Sometimes I have to get up in the middle of the night and edit a photo or paint something. I like the silence.. I wish there were more hours in a day :p

Aye, like... 32h. I wouldn't mind.

Anyway, I'm 100% a night person. Yesterday I couldn't start to do anything I should (except surfing on internet/watching tv), but at night I got the inspiration to do my big homework. Well, after few hours I finished it. But the bad thing - I've slept about three hours tonight, again. (luckily, today my whole class slept in lessons )
Oh, and in nights I love to draw / do something with the photos too. Dunno why.

I haven't been inspired lately. That might be explained by the fact that I haven't read much poetry lately, I need to read theory books now.

When I read less, it seems like the inspiration doesn't come as easily.

The last poem I wrote was like 2 weeks ago.

I've always been a night person, through my whole under graduate degree I did all my assignments and study at night and in the early hours of the morning. Same goes for my current post graduate studies, its 2:39am and I've just finished doing some writing.

During the day, I playstation 'til my eyes turn red or read books 'til they run dry, but past 8 'o clock or so I start drawing like a fucking Rembrandt on speed... My mom always says that I should do that during the day but apparently there's more people like me since only 9 out 95 voted "during the day".

For coming up with ideas, there is no pattern. It can be day or night.

For working though, I do very detailed work so I need to see what I am doing, for this daylight (not direct sunlight) is best.
