Apparently seasonal creativity is a thing. Artists – of all descriptions – apparently have periods of creativity that align with the seasons. Productivity increases in certain months and lessens in others. It’s different for everyone when these peaks are, and I suppose it depends on what kind of material you are trying to produce (I’m just assuming here that gothic literature for example would come easier in the depths of winter with a blustering storm outside your window).
For me writing comes more naturally when I’m happy and my happiness is undoubtably greater in summer months. I love feeling the warmth of the sun on my face, having longer lighter evenings to spend with friends, day trips to wonderful places like the Valley of the Rocks etc. Being cold and damp from the rain all the time (I live in the UK, it’s always raining) isn’t a pleasant experience.
Now that Spring is finally upon us – which incidentally coincides with me finishing my degree- I’m ready to begin writing again. I haven’t exactly taken a break but everything I’ve been doing has been for coursework and my dissertation. Now, with the evenings getting longer and a big bank of spare time coming up, I want to start writing for me again.
It may be ambitious but I want to write something longer. I want to write a novel, maybe a novella, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. I’ll keep you all posted! xoxo

Good luck with the writing! My creative times are summer and autumn. Can’t beat the bliss of sun followed by falling leaves X
Thank you! That’s so true.
I’m equally uncreative all year round! Nice blog, will follow. Glad you liked my post https://davekingsbury.wordpress.com/2016/03/08/magic-circle-a-100-word-story/
My creativity is comes in random spikes. Just like everything else I do. XD
Spring, summer and Autumn. In fact I peak when the seasons change and when key moments come and go. Equinox. Solstice etc.
