As I get interrupted even when drinking water, my writing routine is less about a time of day, and is instead a series of steps to get myself into the mindset:

1) Open 750words
2) Open Ellipsus (great document collaboration website with an anti-AI stance)
3) Reread where I left off

If I manage to get through the first 3 steps, I'm in the right mind for step 4: Writing at least 250 words.

If the 250 come easy, I'll go for another 100 words. If it doesn't, I'll still work on writing, but it could be outlining or character shorts. Important thing is to touch the story every day.
