I do far more at my cluttered desk. (I'd probably do even more if I tided the desk but then that's procrastination. Right?)<br /><br /><br />Shirley Corderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04429641202607657089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411231637771693377.post-5610546322896989672012-08-17T15:46:07.285-04:002012-08-17T15:46:07.285-04:00Wow, what a beautiful setting.

If I'm walking my dogs alone, that can get me going. Sometimes driving alone in my car can. Sometimes it's a question one of my kids asks, or something I'm reading. I do write poetry by hand, which means I can write it anywhere, but fiction is inside, because I write that on my laptop and I canMargaret Fielandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12639464925210908450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411231637771693377.post-39516685809324273902012-08-17T08:04:12.762-04:002012-08-17T08:04:12.762-04:00I find I need to get into nature, not to write, bu...I find I need to get into nature, not to write, but to be rejuvenated.

I have to write as and when - no chance to tease the muse or wait for inspiration. It's wherever and whenever I have a minute - in the midst of the living room with noisy kids, television and stereo blasting (often together with different sounds) - the cacophany of life. I do reflection in beautiful settings and often Magdalena Ballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00182314078304734996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411231637771693377.post-63968864406566329182012-08-17T02:43:45.197-04:002012-08-17T02:43:45.197-04:00Getting out into nature helps get me "unstuck...Getting out into nature helps get me "unstuck" in my writing sometimes, but I do 99.9% of it in my office at home.

If he doesn't show up in my office and I find myself stuck for a few days and produce little or nothing of quantity or worth, I find a change of scenery helps. A coffee shop or the library are my usual other places to write. I get to go away so seldom, that when I do, even if I take my laptop, I don't accomplish much writing.
