A few weeks ago, I lost my desk – and keyboard – to papers, books, mail,
pens, pencils (yes, I still keep those around) and more paper. I literally
couldn’t write for months with all that clutter. And that physical clutter was
fast becoming mental clutter. I knew I needed to purge my office space if I
wanted to get the inspiration flowing back and writing with a clearer mind.
So one weekend and three trash bags later, I found my desk again. I reorganized
and claimed my writing space back. It was refreshing and exciting to see my
desk – and keyboard – again. I found myself getting “butt in chair” more often
than I have in months and I now look forward to more writing time with my
newfound space.
**Though my desk is finally clutter-free, I always have close at hand:

My writing journals
·
GMC by D. Dixon

ReplyDeleteI always find I write a lot better with a clean space. Even my house needs to be somewhat clean before the ideas start to flow.
