Yes, these are my essentials: water, highlighters, Cheryl Klein’s Second Sight and a remote for the TV in the next room.

I wanted to give everyone a sneak peek into my writing cave. So many writers tweet about heading to their writing cave and so, I thought why not show the cave in which I write? I decided to just keep it simple and post the pics. This may be more of a plog than a blog. As you’ll be able to tell, I have a love for wall decals as a quick decorating fix. This is my cave in its current messy state. I didn’t worry about straightening up before you guys got here. Just like real friends, you can see it in all its disheveled glory.

These wonderfully-applied wall decals brought to you by the patience of my husband.

Wall I stare at all day. I call this my inspiration tree and of course I must have a wall calendar. Wondering who it is in the calendar?

Yep, it’s Elvis. The KING.

This little alcove sits to my left and who better to witness all my writing fails and wins than Marilyn Monroe herself. In case you can’t read the quote it says, “Beneath the makeup and behind the smile I am just a girl who wishes for the world.”

Here you can actually see the Muses above bestowing me with divine inspiration.

I hope you all enjoyed seeing my writing cave. I enjoy it. It gives me some space from the family and a hiding spot when I’m crying over horrible first drafts. I’d love to see pics of your writing caves if you’d like to share. Have a wonderful Wednesday!
