I do not have an office. I do not have a regular desk or a computer desk.
But I have 'my space.' Which is all I need to write.
Below is my old enamel top wooden desk:
This desk holds my laptop, my file folders for ideas, manuscripts, call outs and contests, tips for writing PBs and MGs, etc., my notepad, my books, etc. The pictures and mouse pad provide me with 'childlike' inspiration. There is a fold out poster stored beside of my desk for picture book brainstorming.
I just recently added this corkboard:
I will thumb tack my ideas on this during the month of November!
It currently has six new ideas posted on it!
I think this will work much better than keeping them in a folder or notebook. They will be in full view at all times. I will continue to keep my ideas there - whether they be ideas for PBs, columns or MGs even after PiBoIdMo is over.
What does your workspace look like? How many ideas have you came up with this month?
