I like to switch things up when I write, and that includes where I
write. Here are my ten favorite writing places and spaces.
In my recliner. My number one place to write is seated in
my recliner with my laptop, preferably with coffee or water and a snack nearby.
At my desk. Yes, I finally have a desk after fifteen years
of not having one. I don’t write here as often as I should, mostly because I get
bored easily being in one spot (and the recliner calls to me). But when I get
down to serious writing business I go to my desk. It makes me feel very
professional.
You knew this answer was coming. I don’t go to Starbucks often because I’d
go broke, but it’s nice to have an expensive coffee while trying to figure out
my latest plot twist. I’ll have a salted caramel mocha, please.
On my phone.This isn’t a place, but I can be
anywhere when I write on my phone. I also dictate my stories sometimes, which
I’ll usually do while pacing back and forth. Which looks as weird as it sounds.
In my car. When I started writing sixteen years ago my
kids were little. I spent a lot of time shuffling them hither and yon, and a lot
of time waiting in the car. Before I had a cell phone (yeah, there was a time
when I didn’t) I wrote my stories out in longhand. See #4 to find out what I do
now.
Football games. I love watching football. I love writing.
Thus I love combining the two.
Probably my favorite restaurant for writing. I’m not the only one, since on
any given day I’ll walk in and see half the patrons with their laptops open.
Clearly I’ve found my people.
Hotels/Motels/B&Bs. I don’t do this as much as I’d
like to, but in the past I’ve taking little writing vacations, which means I
write when I’m on vacation. The change of scenery mixed with taking time out to
relax away from home always boosts my creativity.
In bed. I have an iPad keyboard that works beautifully
while I’m lying in bed. Now if I can only stop watching Youtube videos…
In the bath. This is my rarest writing place of all
because, water. But the few times I’ve set up my tub so I can write have been
wonderful. Plus, I’m all about multitasking.

Kathleen Fuller was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, grew up in Little Rock,
Arkansas, and currently lives in Geneva, Ohio. Fuller has been married to James
for 21 wonderful years (really, they have been wonderful!) She started writing
in 2000, and published her first short story a year later. Fuller has a Masters
degree in Special Education, emphasis on teaching the blind and visually
impaired, and a Bachelors in Early Childhood/Elementary Education.
A few
of her favorite things: her relationship with Christ, chocolate (of course!),
autumn, a satisfying book, good friends, a sense of humor, people who don't take
themselves seriously, haunting melodies, NFL football, and did we mention
chocolate?
Abigail Schrock knows God can make all things new, but does that
include her broken heart?
It seems as if everyone is falling in love in Birch Creek, including Abigail
Schrock. But when heartbreak descends on her already fragile world, she can’t
help but feel that if she’d only been a little prettier, she could be on her way
down the aisle. To make matters worse, Abigail’s two sisters have found love,
and all Abigail can seem to find is the chocolate she has stashed away in the
pantry.
Asa Bontrager has never had trouble with the ladies in his Amish community—his
good looks have always gotten him far. Which is why he’s baffled by the call
he’s received from God to pursue Abigail, a woman who seems determined to turn
him away.
Can Abigail find the peace and joy she so desperately desires? Will she allow
herself to stop running and melt into the embrace of unforeseen comfort? If she
does, she may discover a love powerful enough to restore her hope in a promising
future.
