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 Famous or anonymous, published or (so far) unpublished, we want to see your writing space.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,
