Where I write lends to how well I write. There are a few different places where the atmosphere of writing helps facilitate my writing. My favorite place to write is my room. Its a bright room, very spacious with a desk and lamp on the stand. My room is filled with clothes that my deceased brother owned. I'm not sure if its comforting or just a way to feel reminded of him, but I enjoy seeing his things in various places of the room.
The seat for my desk is comfortable. It has wheels to move about the room and the back of the seat conforms to my posture whether I sit erect or slouch a bit. The room feels like home. I feel comfortable and that comfort allows me to keep my focus while i am completing a task.
The next place that I find myself interacting with writing is when I am at the library. When I am at the library, the setting, whether its people walking around and talking, or a quiet corner in study room, I interact with writing comfortably. At times, I desire to have people around, talking and moving. Other times, I need the quiet to focus on whatever particular writing project I am doing. The space in the library is comforting. I feel that my ideas are metaphorically running around the room and I have to catch them. The space and the comfort of knowing that I am in a academic setting comforts me. It allows me to feel scholarly and able to perform my writing task.
Lastly, the only other place where I write comfortably is outdoors. I don't do it often but, if I do, I write for recreational purposes. I tend to write poetry or journal while I am outdoors. I enjoy being in nature. Trees, water and the blue skies gives me a comfort that puts me in the mood to write. I can not think of any other places where I am comfortable writing. I have written some of my best works in one of these places.
