[Storyteller.]

All things being equal, I aim for about eight hours. Anything less than seven and I tend to struggle the next day, and usually anything more than nine hours makes me overtired. That said sometimes fatigue kicks in and I need more sleep, around nine/ten hours a night.

If I have trouble falling asleep my go-to is to read one of the books I keep on my nightstand, but if that doesn't work sometimes I'll get up and have a warm drink or play with my pets for a bit.
