I'd been sitting at my ergonomically-positioned desk, chair and computer in my little cubicle for 17 years. So I took the bi-fold doors off the closet in the spare room and fitted a custom desk top into it. I got a small desk at a used furniture store to make an ell. I now have a cozy and comfortable little writing nook that I head for every morning after my coffee and newspaper. This gives me a lot of structure for my daily life. Sadly, I have only published a family cookbook and my novel languishes, but I blog and that keeps me feeling like a writer.

Occasional sunshine makes no end of difference. -Jan in Iowan0aaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020996948408839877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21671665.post-13895220071104999322013-02-06T15:15:46.047+00:002013-02-06T15:15:46.047+00:00Got it covered; my scheduled afternoon reading tim...Got it covered; my scheduled afternoon reading time is spent on the exercise bike.
