Courtney Walsh shares her writing place on todays Writing Wednesday My dining room has a big table my dad made me, so it’s great for spreading out when I have several things to keep track of, and my front room has a cozy spot in the corner where I’m surrounded by books, so I can’t help but love writing in there. Courtney Walsh shares her writing place on todays Writing WednesdayĮvery now and then I’ll set up a makeshift office in my kitchen, including a whiteboard and index cards for the (somewhat disorganized) notes I use when working on a new story. In the winter, I have a comfy chair that I curl up in, right next to the fireplace. I now write on my laptop in several different locations in my house. Maybe that’s why I prefer to write in the midst of the chaos of a busy house with three kids and a new puppy? I didn’t have an office (or even a cubicle) so distractions were everywhere.

I spent some time working as a newspaper reporter right out of college, and I think it was one of the things that best prepared me for writing because I learned to write in the middle of a newsroom. (It was also my scrapbooking room because back in the day I did a lot of that too!)Īnd then I realized that while I’m fairly introverted and don’t mind being alone, I also don’t love being so far removed from what’s happening in my family. When we first moved here in 2012, it was one of the things I loved most-my own space in our finished basement where I could set up shop and write undisturbed.
