The activity that makes me lose track of time is writing. When I open my Scrivener documents or draft my future blog posts, I enter a sort of trance. Hours pass, and I’m completely unaware. I forgot to eat and drink water. Sometimes I sit in the most uncomfortable positions to hold my laptop close to my chest. I don’t realize it until I try to move, and my bones creak. I’ve had to banish nighttime writing. I used to say, “It’s already 10 pm. I’ll just reread this chapter. It should only take 30 minutes.” Then I would hear birds and see the sun rise. I would unintentionally revise and annotate about ten chapters and write several notes in my writing journal. Nighttime writing is a dangerous game!
