Last year many of the Meanderings and Muses guests honored us by agreeing to a request I made of them; to share a peek at where they work their magic.
It was a bunch of fun, and quite interesting, to see what people chose to share. Some chose their "real" office. Some chose their alternative offices. Some chose a view from their office window. And some chose a spot completely away from their laptops where their imagination just soars.
And now, here they all are. Gathered together in one spot, shown here in the order in which they were posted.
The Meanderings and Muses' version of THE WRITERS' (and Their Readers') DESKS.
Enjoy!

Whoa - Pat Conroy?!
Well, O.K.
So he wasn't a guest blogger.
So??!
We were part of his Blog Tour with TLC though - you can read it here
That counts.
Right?!
Right!

Here's to spending many more years together
Hugs!

What a great stream of shots--and what a great year you made for everyone at M&M, Kaye! Wow, some of those views are simply staggering...the beach, a cliff over the beach, even Vicki's snow. Love all the cats (and yes, the corgi, too)! Happy New Year, to Kaye & all her many readers--can't wait to be back here in 2011 :)
Thanks for sharing these. It was fun to see them all together for comparison.
Very cool!
And I hope you find your writing office works well! :)
Terrific collection of photos! Especially love the kitty shots. (It worries me that most of those desks are clean and neat. Mine looks nothing like that!)
What fun - thanks for including me!
I love this! Thank you, Kaye! It's interesting to analyze, you know? The elegant spare clean areas, the cluttery colorful chaotic areas...lots of light, not much light. Desktop, laptop. Hmm. It must mean something...
Happy New Year and much much love to all... (And odd to think you can look back and see right where I'm sittng..)
Happy New Year, Kaye. I hope I'll be seeing you at some point in 2011.
I love seeing the pictures all together like that, Kaye! Just shows how each of us need something different from our work space. And now I remember how I cleaned mine up for the picture (it almost never looks like that!) and removed the mounds of paper from the surface.
A fabulous year. Merry Christmas!
Love your new "desk," Kaye!
Happy holidays to you and yours and to all your blog readers,
Beth
I want Marcia Talley's view! What a great compendium. Thanks for posting all these together, Kaye.
I cannot believe how neat my desk looked when I sent over that photo. It's a lot more like Hank's now!
No matter where we work, we get it done in our own way.
Thanks so much for sharing these.
What fun to see how so many writers work. Could mysteries be written without cats?
That's good though, right, Morgan? xxo
Meredith, you cleaned up? Brilliant. I, clearly, didn't.
Hi, everyone! thanks for stopping by!
This was a fun piece, wasn't it?
Hank, I agree - it is interesting to see the different personalities reflected in work areas. also interesting to see who cleaned everything up before taking their pictures!! LOL! You little dickenses. (is dickenses a word?)
