Seasons of Writing

I don't know about where you are, but it's still pretty cold here in New York. That being said, with Daylight Saving time, I FEEL spring is here.

I also noticed that I go through a writing change per season. Winter and summer are my least productive seasons. In summer I'm out a lot, and in winter I'm moping because I can't be out a lot (though I do love a good snowstorm.)

Fall is a perfect writing time for me, since I hate that time of year with a fiery passion (I know I'm probably the only person on earth, judging by all the fall-lovers in my Twitter/Facebook newsfeeds.) But I really do dislike the season. To me, early fall is the most depressing, since all it signifies to me is summer's end. I was brought up on this belief, after all:

Plus I feel left out because I hate fall activities. I'm allergic to hay, and I think pumpkin flavored drinks are gross. So, I hole up in my room, while everyone's planning Halloween costumes and apple picking, and I write (for the record, I do love November, since it's too pretty not to love.)

But then spring comes and it's a whole new story. I have these bursts of energy to create, and renewed hope for my works' success. Maybe it's because of the all extra sunshine.

Or maybe it's just the way I roll.

What season are you most productive in?? Or is it just easier for you to write in a specific season???
