Scribe
Some people write in the morning or in the afternoon and some write at night. When do you think is the best time to write?
In the evening, I tend to be more in tune with the emotional side of the writing.

I also never do major edits in the evening because tired judgement isn't good judgement.
Feels like if you lose that change or thought you'll never get it back.
For me, writing is a solitary endeavor. I need a quiet, dark place. Preferably this place also contains a bottle of strong drink.
I do try to write when I can during the day. However, I find the constant interruptions (a.k.a. Day job) to be limiting in terms of quality & quantity.
Late at night, when the wife & kiddies are asleep, I shut myself away in the office and stay there until I reach my word count goal. Since I tend to write dark stories, I find the mood of my words are enhanced by the environment.
One theory I've heard is that the human mind is most creative and social in the morning
