Thanks, everyone for stopping by and checking out Kristen’s office and video…and for sharing your thoughts about office space. It seems, when we’re determined, writers can write anywhere.

The past 10 days I’ve been doing a lot of writing in the hospital while visiting my daughter. The first day, as a result of rushing to the emergency room, I didn’t have any paper with me. So I pulled some paper towels from the dispenser and wrote my weekly cooking column as I waited.

You’re getting into this whole video deal huh. I like your shelves above, but that might distract me. I also can’t believe you have the shelves, bookshelf, file cabinet and extra space in the corner. Wow. That’s a lot of office, I can see why you’ve been sorting. I share my office with a seven year old, he’s sort of accommodating, but I bet louder than your hubs. Great video.

Kristen,

Thanks for sharing your office with us. Wish I had a space that big–even if I did have to share it. Since I live in a rather small apartment, my “office” is a corner of my living room, which means my writing space is also my teenaged son’s video game-playing and DVD-watching space. (He’s really good, though, about setting the volume far lower than he’d like it when I’m writing so I can concentrate; and thankfully, it’s not an everyday occurrence.)

Great post!
Jeanne

Thanks, Jennifer, for stopping by. Wasn’t this a really neat idea for a guest post that Kristen had?

Wow, Kristen – this is BRAVE! I am wondering to myself if I’d have the courage to do the same! Your space IS cute – and your 50% decluttering goal is admirable. Can’t wait to see the next video!

@Mary Emma – I agree! It’s fun to be able to see and hear the friends we’ve known for so long.

@Alicia – Thanks, sweetie. I’m sorry you’re feeling cramped right now. I know the feeling. I’m still getting used to having my own space! It hasn’t always been this nice.

Thanks for being our guest at Home Biz Notes, Kristen. I enjoyed seeing your office. This gives me the incentive for clearing up my spaces. I have to share various spaces and must get better organized. It also was neat to see a picture of you. We’ve been blogging colleagues for quite awhile, so it’s nice to have a face and voice to put with our correspondence.
