What makes you the most comfortable when writing?
For me, it's the following things:
- Wearing an old, ratty pair of pyjamas
- My hair piled on top of my head, out of my face (I have a lot of hair)
- Absolutely no makeup (I like to feel 'fresh')
- The blanket I stole from my mother-in-law across my lap
- Warm feet
- Glass of water or can of coke
- Silence (no TV or music)
- Early evening, just after the little one's gone to bed (about 7)
ETA: A cushion under my butt. My chair's hard!
And if the rain's hammering on the skylight above my head, all the better.
What about you? I know some writers who only feel comfortable when they're dressed, makeup on, hot cup of coffee, etc. Others work best when slouched on the bed, cat asleep on their back. We all feel differently.
