Designing a creative environment can foster writing habits and avoid distractions. Inspiration from Maya Angelou & Twyla Tharp backed by behaviourial science from Richard Thaler.
I recently rearranged my old desk in my office after I had to clear my desks/space for windows replacement. I also put my computer stuff back on my main desk differently. I feel like I have more space yet my writing area feels cozier. The new windows let in tons more light, and I put some plants and dried hydrangea flowers on my desks. It no longer feels like a weight, but a welcoming space. Environment matters, you’re right. 🙂
I love this Shireen and so glad you have a cosy, welcoming space to write. It is also odd how we often stick with our environment not realising that a few small changes can have a huge impact on how we feel and how we write. Here's to light and space.
I avoid that middle aisle like the plague! Lidl and Aldi!
I recently downsized to 2 tiny places, a cottage in summer and apartment in winter in warmer weather. Both are one room affairs and I’m having a hard time fitting in a designated writing space.

It’s very true. Even adding a hardy spider plant and a childhood photo can lift the spirits. :)
