I thought it might be kind of cool if everyone took a snapshot of what their writing space looked like and posted it. No other special reason why, really, just thought it would be neat.
mine is the dining room table. i truly wish
i had a space to call my own. i stuck a little
sewing table in the reading nook of our bedroom,
but i have only used it once to write.
otherwise, i wrote a lot at starbucks.
my dream is to have a writer / artist studio
of my own some day...

That's my dream, too!
If I'm not writingin a living room chair or drawing at the dining room table, I'm sitting at my computer desk. It's not a very well-organized desk, but it's what I have. My monitor, scanner/printer, and tower are all on one shelf, with thekeyboard on a pull-out shelf below. My various disks, speakers, and three Godzillas(1954, 1968, and 2000) are onthe top shelf, while papers and notebooks are on the bottom shelf.
I wouldlove a real drawing table, but there's no roomfor one here anyway.

My wife is quite chagrined that I am sharing my 'filthy rat's nest' of a hole in the ground.
I'm rather content with it - though I do wish it had Beth's view andmore access to sunlight. And who stacked all that paperwork around the place?

I just have a used desk where the computer sits and off in a corner of my one bedroom apartment is a corner for my one bookshelf and a comfortable chair where I work or write longhand or just read. Nothing elaborate at all.
I keep reminding myself (for inspiration purposes) that Stephen King himself has said that he wrote Salem's Lot in a tiny corner space of the laundry room in their double wide trailer way back when. Balancing his wife's typewriter on a piece of wood that he balanced on his knees!
(And that was AFTER already writing five previous books he couldn't sell and THAT was all before he wrote Carrie!)
Little trivia like that keeps me going
My writing space is a computer desk in the corner of the living room, that's usually buried under books and paper. And sometimes cats. There are a couple of bookcases next to it, plus a noticeboard, and I keep a lot of knick-knacks lying around to remind the bf that it's my space and not to dump his stuff there. I put fairy lights up around the monitor and noticeboard, but the light's so poor I never use them

hiya all, i work at my computer, which is in the corner of my dining room. I am still in college working on my business degree. I have a bit to go as yet. I like to write , but need to learn . I have only had a poem published so far. I need to find the connections and the teachers to mold me into a productive published entity. I will bribe folks to help me, I can create custom leather and the custom blades to reward those who help me upgrade my skills. Hope to do well and reward my friends and destroy my enemies.

My mom was an evil witch who lived on the darkside. I grew up with paranormal as normal. Was rather odd but not scary. when i became a Christian, that i found kinda odd and reversed as well as closed minded. Explaining spiritual things to folks who do not believe in spirits, never mind the spiritual world, is slow going.

I don't see the book cover artists much; I've been going by the magazines. Sometimes I've seen book covers that were quite good in advertisements, but don't know who the artists were. Though I do...

I'm not much of a science fiction reader any more. From my fading memories a few names come to mind. David Drake and Jerry Pournelle for military sf, and or course William Gibson for cyberpunk.
I don't have an issue with a short story or promotional book published at $0.99, and I like $2.99 for novellas. For novels? E-books equate well with mass-market paperbacks, whch usually go for...
