My Writing Space
Right now in my life I'm living in a smaller quarters while I
figure out where I would like to live next...oh and by the way I need a job too
to help me get there. So while I'm figuring all that out, I take a break from
it all and delve into the fiction worlds I love to create.
This is my main desk and computer and where the majority of my
writing takes place. I share this space with my fiancé. When he's home I
sometimes plug in my net book, and move to another side of the room. My cat
Gizmo is laying on the power source box next the desk, one of her many daily
hangouts. She likes it because it’s warm, cats love the heat.
I also enjoy writing on my AlphaSmart. It's easier to travel with
than the net book, it runs on batteries only that last forever. Transferring
the file to the computer is a breeze. The words appear on the screen like a
magic trick. It's fun to watch, and very fast.
I have tried writing in hip places like coffee shops and
restaurants, but they're usually too distracting for me, sometimes I've written
a quick outline of a story, but never real story writing in public. I have
taken my AlphaSmart to the beach and wrote while sitting in my car looking out
at the surf. That was nice. I love Jones Beach, I'm a Long Islander at heart.
:) If you're a writer, where do you usually work? Do you have any alternate
writing places when you need to hide out? Drop me a comment, I'd love to hear
where other writers do their writing. My blog is www.carolynwrites.blogspot.com.
I also have a new website where you can read an excerpt of Love
and the Economy. http://www.carolyngibbsbooks.com/
