Tired Writings

Do you call it quits when you get too tired to write? Is it because you can't string words together or make a valid point to your argument? Is it just because you dislike writing when you aren't fresh? I actually like writing when I'm tired, but it's kind of dangerous. My restraints that keep me from writing what I want to write are largely removed. The dark personality that was in the past is no longer chained up and breaking free, after I devoured him earlier in this year. But that doesn't mean that persona is gone for good. So when I get tired I want to write all the things I can't during the day. Of course I'm still holding back, even as I fall asleep while typing this. After all, if I let go in my writing then I will break the rules, and I don't want to go there! So how about you? Do you have a darker side to your writing that emerges when you are tired?

No, I don't write well when I am tired. I don't have a dark side dark enough to worry about in the sense of writing. But I have a short-tempered side that might come out in comments if I get overtired and don't restrain myself.

That short temper can be equivalent to a dark side when pushed right!

I'm going out on a limb and saying that most people probably lack demonic sides to begin with.

@crazyhorseladycx Mine eats human negativity. Even if I didn't want to feed it it would be impossible to deny it.

Nope I just can't get my fingers to move when I am tired. I write best when everything is quiet and clam around me.

I tried writing a story with my eyes closed once. There were many typos but it was easier to focus on getting it done.

I can not write a thing when my mind is tired.

I'd say most people fall into that category.

No, I have not a dark site, when I am tired I am unable to write and I even find difficult to read and comment.

Sometimes I have written more tired than I have when I was wide awake. I think it has to do with distractions as well as being tired. When tired I have to shift all focus towards one thing. When I'm awake I have a focus on many things at once.
