Figure out when the absolute latest you can afford to go to sleep is - in the summertime, this is no problem for me; in the rest of the year, it's usually around midnight, give or take an hour or two. Write down as much as you possibly can before you hit that deadline - either actual story-writing, or just taking notes. (This is why I keep my laptop on at night, and near my bed.) Then go to sleep, and edit/add/write in the morning. ^_^
