Cheryl St John had a blog yesterday about her cave, her inner sanctum and I was impressed. This is what my writing space currently looks like. I stitched the unicorn picture when I was sixteen. Underneath are my covers such as I have them. On the top of the bookcase, you can see the champagne bottles from my celebrations of my first two M&B contracts. The red heart shaped box next to them is where I keep my reader letters. It was originally a box of chocolates from my dh, but I loved the shape and thought it the perfect place to keep reader's letters. And you can see my mug. There is generally a mug of something on my desk and I tend to drink it either lukewarm or cold as I go into the kitchen to have a break, wander back, start writing again and then remember...And also in the room, but in the picture was my yellow labrador who was lying alseep, and whom I nearly tripped over as I triedto take the picture.
And I am in mid-book. I thought it was in a mess , until Cheryl point me in the direction of Writer's Caves and I saw Jennifer Cruisie's. Then I realized what mess could really be like!
So go on tell me what is YOUR cave like or better yet post a photo on your blog so the world can see!

Your cave is actually very tidy, Michelle. (And I am not posting a pic of mine becuase it's so messy I'm ashamed of it.)
Lovely pics on the walls. And is that a pre-Raphaelite calendar?
No messy is Jennifer Cruisie -- anything lese is untidy. YOurs will not be as bad!
The calender is of women reading and was from my aunt who thought it appropriate. Above the calender is a tracing by my youngest of an Easterling.
The framed posters are all from San Francisco. I really like the one of the GOlden gate bridge. A friend went to the ABA conference in 1985 and picked it up for me. It was on my wall for a number of years and eventually we got it framed. It is made up of *scraps* from Balantine, Del Rey and Fawcetts novels from that year.
Researching my surname and ended up here because your youngest traced a picture of an Easterling (my surname) pretty good likeness of me 1st thing in the morning lol
LOL Gayle. Thanks for stopping by. Good luck with researching your family.
I wonder if Tolkien knew any Easterlings and that was why he called them that. It is interesting to speculate on why a writer calls things by certain names.
