Ok, ready, this is exciting!!!!!!
I HAVE A DESK! Sorry, just had to shout lol. Well, ok, it’s not exactly a desk, more like a small table lol. But it’s my small table, in my little corner *grins* π
It’s taken a lot of reorganisation. We had to find a new space for the reading chair (otherwise known as the cats chair) so that has now gone in the living room. Then I had to clear 4 shelves of fiction TBR’s (to be reads) so some of them got packed in boxes, hubby’s went in piles down his side of the bed, mine, down my side of the bed. So now I have about 5 boxes of books at the bottom of my bed that I have to manoeuvre round to actually get to the desk. My bedroom has become an obstacle course, but I don’t care. I HAVE A DESK! lol. Sorry, can you tell I’m thrilled π
Sooooo, now, I’m all set to write that brilliant best seller that’s gunna make me a fortune right? π
AND you can look out the window as you type. Sweeeeet!

Congratulations Vikki. Great to have your own creative space. I didn’t think I could ever work anywhere but in my study. But last winter it was so cold up there that I moved to the kitchen table. My desk is lovely, and my study is nice (although it’s getting full with sofa-bed, stationery and books). But the kitchen table is really big, and it’s in an extension with a large windows that let in the light. It’s like sitting in the garden without the wind. Where do I prefer to write? At the kitchen table. But then, I live on my own, so I’m not in anyone’s way. x
