What are your five favorite writing places?
- My desk. This is where my laptop lives, which means it's pretty much where I live, too. I don't have an office. My desk is my office.
- My bed. There comes a time when the formality of a desk is too much and I need to be able to relax while I write. Which is when I move to my bed. It's awesome.
- My front porch. The afternoon sun hits my front porch just perfectly. To sit and write and enjoy the weather and sunlight and beauty, and maybe the used-to-be-indoor-thinks-he's-an-outdoor cat rubbing around my legs...that's bliss. {My laptop battery recently took a turn for the worse, which has put a damper on the whole porch thing.}
- My grandmother's guest bedroom. Not kidding. There's not really anything to do in there {read: no distractions} except for the TV, which means that I can focus on writing like nobody's business.
- The tech room at church. I do some tech stuff at my church, which means I'm often there during the week editing video. That room is silent. You can't see in. The door locks. And until recently, I didn't have internet, which made it focus paradise.

Ooh, I like the front porch one! But yeah, my laptop battery's not so great either, so I couldn't do that.
I mostly write at my kitchen table. I have a desk, but it's in a shared office with my husband, and he plays loud video games in there. :P Sometimes I'll take my laptop to a coffee shop or a library for a change of scenery, though.
I used to sit on my purple couch in my living room with my netbook and write. I recently got a loveseat in my office, so I've been writing there, but it's too close to my distracting, internet-connected PC, so I'm thinking I'll move back to the living room. I got a lot of work done there.
I'll sometimes go to Maui Wowi after church on Sunday and fiddle around with poetry. The other day, I wrote a fun one about a surfboard.
I write everywhere. On my bed, on the floor, at the kitchen table, at cafes and coffee shops...basically, almost anywhere!
