What inspires you most? A tree house?
Or maybe a house on the water?
A castle with a garden for all the five senses?
A book-lined garden shed? (Don’t think about damp and other practicalities for a moment!)
In my grandiose moments, I dream of escaping to the old Royal Salt Mine designed by that mad visionary Nicolas Ledoux. It may be architecture on a huge scale, but it’s soothingly remote.
In the end, though, it will have to be sofa. Or maybe my garden deck. Still, it could be worse, right?

Marina Sofia – Oh, these are all gorgeous! Hmm…. I like that private book-lined garden shed – so cosy and comfortable looking. Damp or not it draws me in.
You see, I can’t help thinking of practicalities – like mosquitoes for the cabin on the lake. Or faulty drains in the castle.
I lean toward the book-lined garden shed, too. I’d also like to escape to a cabin in the mountains and write for an entire weekend while my family’s back home…but I don’t think my wife would go for that. So far me, it’ll have to be writing here in my chair while my two-year-old drinks juice, or in the dining room while my six-year-old runs around like a superhero.
Yes, you see, the garden shed is very cosy but a bit too close to home. My life is usually also punctuated by cries of ‘Mum! He started it!’.
I like the look of the treehouse and the garden shed. My garden shed would definitely not look like that though, should I choose to buy and write in one!
There are some great sheds out there.

If only I had room in my garden, I would be very tempted. Maybe with no Internet connection, then I could really write!
The castle for me, please (with a full staff of servants, of course). But not to write – I’ll just be the reader… 😉
Readers are the most important of all. As someone said recently, could all the writers and wannabe writers cease their activities for a year or so, so that readers can catch up with things.
I like to sit by the sea
Something like this for you then?

I completely understand!
Anywhere nice and quiet where I can listen to my words frolicking in my head, smiles ~
So not a cafe writer then? I hear some people even put on a cafe noise soundtrack when they are at home, so they can recreate that buzz.
ALL would be perfect as long as the kids weren’t there. 😉
I hear ya! Am very fortunate to be childless for a few weeks. But of course I miss them…
