No matter how much you plot, plan, schedule working time, and commit to keeping the promise, life happens. The dog requires a walk, a friend needs a shoulder, or you fall asleep at the keyboard. If I waited for celestial alignment and ideal circumstances, I fear I would never write.
Luckily writers are creative, muse driven, inspirational lightning rods, and we must write when the ideas strike. While I am not sure my motion sickness would allow me to compose in the back seat of a taxi, hotels, airports, and airplanes would work. I am enamored with writing in a Walden Pond environment. Maybe I should start a bucket list of writing spots.
The good news is I don’t have to wait for the perfect writing space to materialize. Lacking access to an internet connection improves my productivity. If I can open my laptop and manage to balance it well enough to type, words will make my story grow.
Where is your oddest or favorite writing spot?

I have spent far too much time in waiting rooms, either hospital, dentist or doctor, but always carry a notebook with me and usually end up annoyed when I get called right at an interesting moment!

I am going to start writing some in the library and thinking that will be nice. Quiet and no distractions.
At home I sit in my fsvorite spot on our loveseat. I guess I am like Sheldon from Big Bang Theory. “My spot” LOL!

I don’t often carry my laptop with me during the day, but I have found that the notebook app that came pre-installed on my phone has been a lifesaver for when inspiration strikes. My thumbs couldn’t survive typing out the next great American novel on my phone, but the keys notes and gist are quickly jotted down.

Oh I have typed out more than a few paragraphs on my phone. Thankfully, the auto fill isn’t horrible which makes things go somewhat faster.
