Favorite Writing Space

My favorite writing space used to be at my house in front of my computer, mainly because I didn't have to write by hand if I was here. I have a disability that makes writing by hand difficult. I prefer to write with other people. In fact, since I got a laptop for my birthday, one of my plans is to go to a coffee shop with an accessible bathroom and write about people all day.

I usually write at my desk.....but when writing poetry I usually come up with it when I am doing my cleaning! lOL.....really! I think of a line then go write it down...if I have a favorite place to write though it would be at my friends house....on her deck...where a little stream runs behind it...nature brings out the best in me.

for me, it is whenever an idea comes to me. i always make sure that i have a note book and a sharpened pencil with me at all times!!

The one thing that I require when writing with a pen and paper is a comfy chair. When I'm home from school, I like to sit in the living room- few distractions and comfy chairs. When I'm at school, there are a few coffee shops I like to visit. The school Starbucks on "campus" recently got rid of the nice chairs and replaced them with wooden benches, which is disappointing, but there are a few around campus with nice couches. If I'm typing then I'm not so picky.

I love to write late at night curled up in bed. i switch the light off and the ideas start to form. eventually i give in and sit up and pour out the thoughts. it's better than chocolate! If i'm writing to be productive then i usually perfer to work out in the garden, there is something about being in the open nature that cancels out the electronic world i feel trapped in sometimes. even looking at the rain making patterns on the windows helps! My parents garden has a nice glass topped table that years ago i revised for my exams on, great working space. I'lll even sit out with a blanket when i get cold. Daft i know!

I like to write in the armchair in my husband's study. It faces the window so there is lots of light but I can't see out the window so there is not too much distraction!(I get distracted easily, I like to daydream as well as to write!)

It's kind of whenever and wherever for me. I like taking my notebooks on the go with me and writing in them whenever I get the chance. When I'm real serious about working on my novels, then I'll be at my computer by the window listening to my fantasy music playlist (soundtracks from Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia, Lady of the Water, and the like).

I write best sitting on my couch with a hot cup of coffee on the table next to me and my feet up. Being relaxed and comfortable helps me compose my thoughts better.

I enjoy all sorts of writing. Online, I like writing reviews for the websites Ciao and Dooyoo. I like creative writing too and usually write on Microsoft Word on my computer, as the keyboard is nice and quick if my thoughts tumble out in a hurry and much faster than my handwriting! There is a really good book with lots of ideas for writing called A Writer's Book of Days by Judy Leeves, which is excellent.
