In reply to Cecile Conoly. Your tablet also makes unusual use of the "grave" accent!

I’vé had lots of practice and although I wrote myself à note and left it on thé coffee maker to remind my 5 o’clock self,I wrote some, that was only journaling. IT will never,in other words, never see thé Light of day.But I WILL keep trying This tablet doesn’t hAvé a semi-colon Sô I suppose the semi-colon has also become obsolete.

In reply to Cecile Conoly. Not everyone can get up that early, Cecile. If it ends up being too difficult for you, could you consider writing at lunchtime? Or even during a morning break? Or would that be too difficult?

In reply to Josh Langley. Thanks for the link. Loved your comment, "when you sit and write, you're a writer, even if all you have is a kitchen table and an hour." (I'd amend that to 15 minutes.)

When I work on a book, I write early in the morning, it’s my best time to write. Lots of coffee, peace and quiet and a kitchen table all to myself. And you’re right, it does make me feel like I’ve achieved something and set you up for the day. I wrote a post about how writing at the kitchen table can inspire anyone. http://www.joshlangley.com.au/2015/08/the-secret-super-power-of-kitchen-table.html

In reply to Daphne Gray-Grant. You're absolutely right -- it adds up to a lot over the course of a month or a year, but it feels manageable when you look at each day.

In reply to Daphne Gray-Grant. FitBit tip: if you set your silent alarm (via your cell phone app), always re-sync your app with your device. Otherwise you may not have actually set the alarm.
