IWSG Day Question: What are five objects we'd find in your writing space?
First off, thanks to this month's co-hosts: J.H. Moncrieff, Tonja Drecker , Patsy Collins, and Chrys Fey!
I recently re-did my desk, so it's a lot cleaner than it used to be! The Harry Potter magic wands have been put in a safer location. And the stack of sticky notes have been trimmed down to almost nothing. But what's still here?
First off is the computer. That's a given. Although I have written books entirely by hand, I find I write cleaner if I type a story rather than compose on paper. I write slower on the computer but spend less time editing.
Second are my pens. It's an addiction. I have more pens than I'll ever need. Once I pulled a dozen
from my purse.
Third is a Thesaurus. I keep a physical copy handy. I'm good using an on-line dictionary, but when it comes to hunting down the perfect word, I get better results flipping trough the pages.
Next is the wolf sculpture my son bought me. I have a series of wolf shifter books and it serves as inspiration.
Last but not least? I confess, I didn't get rid of all the stick notes. They're a great way to keep track of the details on my WIP. What day it is, what last name did I give to that minor character who appeared six chapters ago? I just have to remember to get rid of them when I finish the story.
Now, I'm going to find out what the other insecure writers have in their writing space.
