Express Yourself - Post a Picture!


This week for the Express Yourself Meme, we are asked to "Post a picture of your work area; cubicle, craft area, writing area, etc. Then explain what it is you do."
Now, my actual job involves working in a supermarket, and I'm fairly certain most of you will have seen one of those before, so I decided to post a picture of my writing area instead.


By the way, this picture was taken after I tidied up; imagine what it was like before! This is where I spend the majority of my time when I'm not at work, writing and blogging and occasionally playing The Sims 3. If I need to hand-write something, I move the keyboard out of the way and put my notebook on the desk. 
As you can see in the picture, I always have a cup of tea next to me, as well as whatever book I'm currently reading (The Casual Vacancy in this case) with my notebook and my recently acquired Kindle Fire on top of it (I'm doing a post about this on Thursday). 
I could do with a bigger desk really, and more storage space, but this is a good enough area for now.

  1. Writing spaces easily become cluttered. I had to tidy up for my picture as well.

  2. It's pretty cool to see your writing space Laura, it looks fine to me although a little unruly though that's always good haha. I can't wait to read Casual Vacancy soon!

    1. It's very good, I'm about a third of the way through it :)
      Yeah it's usually a lot messier than that, I'm not a very tidy person!

  3. I always work in a complete state of chaos with huge piles of stuff round me. Most of the time I sort of know where things are . . . .OK I don't but I muddle by and it gives the world of tiny little critters a fairy tale world of mountains and labyrinths to play in and I can then think of myself as Daedalus

  5. Hahaha! I loved how you tided up first. I would too. Every time I come back to my desk, I want to know who left it so messy? The answer is always the same, me.

    1. Yes, I usually sit and listen to music while I write, I don't really like to sit in silence :)
