Is there a place you go that inspires you to write more, or that just helps you get into the mood to write?

This is much cleaner than my loungeroom right now!
This is much cleaner than my loungeroom right now!

I must admit that most nights I sit on the couch in my lounge room with my laptop to write. This has more to do with practicality than inspiration. I dream of having a house with a writing retreat of some sort so I can escape into the World of my mind… but that is down the track. I enjoy browsing Pinterest & similar sites for the writing nook of other authors.

Now, I was going to take a picture of my couch, but right now we are doing a major sort out of junk in the house, so it’s all a bit messy. Maybe I’ll share a photo when everything is sorted out.

I’ve also been known to pack up my laptop and head to a cafe for the day to write, though I will write wherever I can. I’ve been known to be sitting at school pick up with a notebook on my lap and a pen in my hand.
