* Those who have been through the fire can offer assistance and guidance. 
*It’s a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds!

December 5 question - 

What are five objects we'd find in your writing space?
Now this is a difficult question for me to answer since I have several writing spaces.  So, I'll choose one thing from each space.
Writing at my dining room table.
1. Desk in Florida--a flamingo figurine given to me by a friend
2. Desk in Michigan--my mom's little pillow I gave her with a Q embroidered on it. My maiden name begins with Q and she always picked up Q's whenever she could find them e.g. stationary, towels, cut-out letters, jewelry. Q is NOT a popular letter with retailers.
3. Dining table in Florida--candle with a wreath of shells around it for the table centerpiece.
4. Dining table in Michigan--fresh flowers from our yard plunked in a vase. Depending on the season. In early spring, forsythia branches or pussy willows and in the fall a bowl of apples.
5. Kitchen Countertop in Michigan--a small TV
I also sit in our Michigan living room in the recliner or a table in our Florida sunroom and create stories. I never write at a coffee shop or area where there are people. I get easily distracted!!
How about you? Do you write in one place or many?
