How to get into the flow of the novel
Start fresh by getting a good night's sleep and have something to eat so you can write for several hours.
You can't get a lot of writing done if you're too tired to stay at your computer. You don't want to be forced to take a break while you're still in the flow of your novel.
Clear your head so you can approach your work without the frustrations of daily life get in the way of being creative. For most people this means writing in the morning.
