Where I Wrote in 2010 - Lschmoopie open call

Rate: 38 Flag

 
I write near a creek.
 
taxesmess 
 
Sometimes I write inside
 
 
the Sanity house, my home.

 

 Or sometimes I write outside overlooking Roberson Creek.

Often I walk across the way, to write inside the farmer's authentic home.

 Where I like to curl near his warm wood fire.

 

My niche by his grandfather clock. 

 

 His chicken bones  on the  kitchen wall amuse me.

 

 Sometimes I write and eat his raspberries.

 

 

 

Or simply enjoy the view.

 

 

 

 

Which changes often, in season.

love the nature, the chicken bone sculpture, and gourds. will he dry and paint them?
it's gorgeous
does your writing change with the seasons and the space?
How lovely! The most serene of writing spaces I've seen thus far. Your photographs are stunningly beautiful. Having never lived in a snow zone I appreciate a place that has a complete change of season. Thanks for answering the OC.
You must have the coolest place on the planet!
speechless, just speechless
you have the most gorgeous desk on earth
The joys of living out in the woods here are well illustrated.
So are your words.
What a supremely beautiful environment is your space.
That would be one perfect writer's place. I however, work in the volcano Karatoa...

ps don't ever give out your address or you will have every struggling writer at your door...they have already been shooed away from Stephen King and Herman Melville's houses (some did not know that Melville was dead and could not sign their copies of Moby-Dick)

Those are some incredible images. The more I see other's desks and work spaces, the less I want to show my own.
Beautiful! Nature in words...doesn't get any better than that! ~r
Gorgeous and inspiring . . .
Who is this mysterious Farmer you speak of? and is that your outhouse or 'his'?

Difficult to resist reading, writing, and relaxing in such a place where beauty just grows up right out of the ground, all around. I miss seasons too, these are beautiful.
O, my God, you have a farm? How wonderful is that? Love, perfect space for writing. A creek too.
An absolutely inspiring space. If you don't mind me asking, what are those long red flowers called?
Thoreau is jealous, but he's working hard to get over it. After all, where he is now is also quite gorgeous.
i've seen photographs you've posted before, but these give a more complete picture of the beauty of the place you and the farmer live. what strikes me most is how many stunning things grow there, from tropicals to fruit to, well, people. it's a perfect place to grow, scupper.

oh, and i may steal 'sanity' as the name for my space. brilliant.
Ooooo! Great pictures!
Best Wishes,
Blittie
perhaps the reason you soul is so beautiful is the sights your eyes behold
You live in the most gorgeous spot : ) Are those hosta blossoms in the one photo? Collards growing? Stunning caladiums! Just so beautiful, no wonder your poetry takes on a life of its own...
My favorite is "I write near a creek." funny.....
scarlett: They look like red clover blossoms, huge ones! Are they, scupper?
Pretty cool pics. I like your style.
Love this. Explains a lot.
WOW. What fabulous and inspiring places to write. Even the chicken bones could be inspirational in those surroundings.
How lovely. It must be easy to write well with nature as your muse.
Wow. Inspiring indeed. Beautiful places to do anything in. No wonder you call it Sanity House.
Wow, what an idyllic place to live! I am green with envy!
The farmer has impeccable taste.
What a wonderful place to think and write, Scup. I can see what inspires your poetry.
Just gorgeous! Inspiration everywhere! And raspberries to boot! R!
For a long time, I have thought we all need a Sanity House. Now, I .... I just .... Oh!
I posted early this morning, and I'm just getting back. Thanks for reading.
--dianaani, Yes, he'll dry/paint the gourds. Some he'll sell to local artists.
--Julie, The atmosphere influences my creativity.
--Scarlet, The red flowers are Crimson Clover.

Thank you again for visiting my writing space.

we all make choices...

you should celebrate the ones that led you to such a homestead.

from the land of suburban blight where my choices have led me it looks unreal, like more than paradise.

i'm glad you shared it though. preesh.
Thanks Charlie. I do celebrate and give thanks for being here at this time. I wouldn't have missed.
--Just thinking, I apologize for overlooking your question. Yes Hosta and Crimson Clover. Lovely.
I can't help but wonder what my own mind might produce in an environment like that. I recognized the hostas, but what are the red flowers? Absolutely gorgeous photographs, scupper.

I'm free for coffee, you know. Accepting invitations.
I am so jealous of all the beauty you have around you.
Such a lovely post, the photos are amazing.
rated with love
Beauty abounds here. The most spectacular office indeed.

And those gourds ... they're alive!
Well, I just have to be jealous. It's idyllic and I love it.
I take no credit for any of what is shared here. My friend, whom I affectionately call the farmer in this blog, has whatever it is one has deep, deep in the soul to bring this to fruition. Also, hard work and lots of it! He never stops.
I am fortunate/blessed to live here at this time in my life.
Can we become good friends so I can come and visit?
if those surroundings don't inspire you, nothing will.
Gorgeous--and whimsical (the chicken bones, the gourds). And savory (the raspberries, the views, the ambiance). No wonder you produce such magnificent work.
How beautiful! Do you and the farmer offer residencies? ;)
