11/01: I've Shown You Mine, Now Show Me Yours, Part II

Category: General

Posted by: Tara Moss

I've Shown You Mine, Now Show Me Yours (Part II).

The call to Show Me Your Writing Desk is proving to be a deliciously revealing exercise in true author exposure. Famous or anonymous, published or (so far) unpublished, we want to see your writing space. Is it tidy? Shambolic? Sacred or moveable? Above are three more contrasting examples of the writing desks of working writers:

Left: The tidy desk of Lee Tulloch, prolific author of several novels including the The Woman In The Lobby and Fabulous Nobodies. Her desk is set with candles and her office has calming green walls.

Middle: The late American poet (and famed hard-drinking womanizer) Charles Bukowski at his writing desk, circa 1978. His creative lubrication of choice was always close at hand.

Right: The anarchic writing desk of Anonymous, featuring a vast collection of CDs, DVDs hard drives and several computers including a defunct laptop. He says, "I am a homeless man living indoors."

Quid pro quo. We've shown you ours, now show us yours, and I'll continue to post the best on The Book Post...

Happy reading,

I've just found your blog, and thought I'd add my strange arrangement of a working area. There's nothing more comfortable than sitting in my gran's old and ugly armchair while working (as a translator).

Just for the fun of it, I added the Hungarian copy of Fetish. Which I happen to have translated.

Thanks Tara for the opportunity to show you mine!
My desk leaves me just a small workspace to write in because I like to surround myself with reminders of what my life is made up of and who is important in it. These reminders and mementos help me write poetry (and other stuff too) because they stir thoughts, impressions and memories of family and place (favourite twin themes of mine.)

Oh, dear. This exercise is really quite revealing, isn't it?

Order above, chaos below. With my father, in full ministerial regalia, gazing down from on high.

The pale purple paint on the walls and the abundance of windows are a must-have for the serious writer of romantic fiction. ;)

Comfortable, cozy, stylish. These are three words that often don’t go together, especially when you combine them with footwear.
