Two laptops and my “happy light” to battle those gray Oregon winters. |
Long gone are the days of a writer hunched over a typewriter. I love that in today’s world, we can write anywhere. I rarely work at a desk. I have one, but it’s in the darkest part of the house and is usually covered in clutter. The kitchen table is about as professional as I get.
I once got lectured by a professional writing coach because I didn’t have a dedicated writing place and sometimes I feel a bit of office-envy when I see photos of beautiful home offices. I can see the value in a quiet, dedicated space.
But, in reality, I’m a nomad. I get bored easily. I like to go where the spirit moves me.
Those of you who follow me on Instagram know I also have a bizarre habit of taking pictures of my laptop at work. It’s sort of my way of “punching the clock.”
Today, I thought it would be fun to share a few of my favorite time clock moments. Grab a cup of coffee and let’s get to work.
|
At the office–a.k.a. the coffee shop.
|
|
Writing fuel. Coffee and peanut M&Ms. One for every 100 words.
|
|
New definition of “yard work.” |
|
Time to pick up the kids from school? |
|
Sneaking in some editing time at the Mount Hermon Christian Writers Conference. |
|
A late night writing session at the Oregon Christian Writers Summer Conference on the Columbia River |
|
I know I’m on vacation–I’m also on deadline. |
|
Can’t get to the coffee shop? At least the kitchen can smell like it. |
|
Too much help while working on the sofa. |
|
My faithful writing assistant. |
So, where do you work best? Do you have your own treasured space, or do you have a wandering spirit?
Blessings!

Such fun seeing all your writing spots! I’m a nomadic writer, too! It comes with the territory when there are kiddos involved, huh? 🙂 Looking forward to your next book! The cover is GORGEOUS!
