My Writing Spot


As promised, today the authors participating in the Meet an Author Monday blog hop will be showing you their workspace.



For my writing time, I decided to nestle myself into a corner of our living room. I have a beautiful view of grape vineyards outside my window (though you wouldn't know it from the blindingly beautiful glow in the picture). I always have a cup of coffee to my left. My current read (Lauren Kate's Torment) to my right. And if you look closely you can barely see the edges of stacks of paper on the far left...those are the Golden Heart entries I'm supposed to judge by March 1st. I'm a tad behind...

But my writing space is just that...*MY* writing space. No clutter. No bills. No stress. Just an orchid, my coffee, and writing materials. That's where I work best. (I totally just typed "That's where I work beer." Freud would have a field day with me right now!)

On to the hop! Here's how it works:

READERS:

•Follow as many authors as you like. Just follow the Linky list and hop from author to author. The idea is to find as many "new to you" authors as you can, and hopefully some great new reading material as well. Leave a comment as you hop from blog to blog! We'd love to chat with you!

AUTHORS:

•Follow the Meet an author Monday host (Cali Cheer Mom) along with any of the wonderfully talented authors on the list.
•You will need to enter your name and blog url into the Linky tool.
•Grab our super cute button and place it in a post. (THIS IS IMPORTANT!) If you don't create a post for the hop, your readers won't have a place to comment, and the hop will stop with you. So create a post, paste in the Linky code and start hopping!
•The purpose of the hop is to meet "new to you" authors and discover great new reads. Follow as many authors as you can. Leave a comment and introduce yourself!
•If you'd like to share the Linky list in a post on your blog ( Please do!) just follow the link and grab the code.

Oh, I love your writing space! I long for one of my own. Unfortunately, right now, it's the couch. *sigh*
