Do you have a favourite place to write?
I sit in the comfort of an armchair with my laptop, and a cup of black coffee close at hand. I may read a poem, or a chapter of a novel to get my creative juices flowing. Occasionally, I listen to classical music, but I mostly write and edit in silence.
Do you have a particular routine?
Just saw I used the word usually 3 times in 2 sentences! Terrible! It's typing on my iPhone! And forgive the typo's too!
I also like to write in my favourite armchair with just my laptop and a cup of tea! I can't have music on as it distracts me and prefer to work on silence, but I often write in the evening while the tv is on in the background. I can usually switch off to that, unless it's something I'm interested in. I don't usually need anything to get me started, I'm usually itching to get started, but this's porbbaly because I've not been writing for a long time. And I have about 4 books in my head fighting to get out!
I often go on weekends away with my friends to cottages or renovated barns in Wales and think what wonderful places they would be to write (not during those weekends though, they're all about walking and wine!). Sitting on the decking with my laptop and a glass of wine or a mug of tea. How decadent that would be to have a whole weekend/ week of writing. No kids/dogs/husband/ civilisation. Just me, lots and lots of tea/ wine and my laptop :)
