I don’t have a specific area where I write, but there are a couple places that I like to write.
Coffee shops are one of my favorite places to write. I get to drink coffee, and eat pastries. Coffee shops are also great places to people watch. I love coffee shops because I don’t get distracted as easily. Power outlets are often far and few between so I have to get my writing done, especially if I can’t to an outlet. On the downside, some places seem to frown upon staying for a few hours, so I also have to keep an eye on the time. And there’s also the cost of food/drinks every so often.
However, at home is where I get most of my writing done. There’s no specific writing room or anything, since I’m still living at home, and I can’t exactly claim any room specifically for writing. It does sound nice, though. Someday. Anyway, I pretty much write in my room, on my netbook. It’s great to write at home because I stay as long as I want. Plus there’s free food and coffee. On the downside, there’s a lot of distractions at home, so it’s not ideal for someone so easily distracted. There’s family needing stuff, (or just being annoying), there’s the lure of the internet. And for some reason, when I’m writing is always, without fail, the time I decide I need to make enough dinner for a couple weeks. And bake a lot of stuff. Which would be helpful if I did it before the month where I try to write 3 novels.
Of course, everyone has their own preference about where to write, so it’s definitely good to know where and how you work best, and to use it to your advantage.
