Ever wonder what a writer’s desk looks like?
- Is it a mess?
- Stacks of paper?
- Littered with M&Ms?
- Cookie crumbs?
- An assortment of coffee cups?
- Does it reveal his/her personality?
- Does it reflect how their mind works?
Here’s some pics of the primary area where I write:
-
- 5 seconds after I cleaned my desk
-
- My fun stuff in writing suspense
-
- A favorite
-
- This sits on a shelf behind me.
-
- Books and collectibles
-
- Typical …
-
- So many interests
How do you think it compares with other writer’s desks?

DiAnn, your office looks just like you—so put together and beautiful! Mine looks like me—sloppy, but interesting. 🤣
You are not sloppy but amazingly creative!
It’s so nice and organized. I love the quote about the worried mother!
Thanks, Barbara, that quote fits all of us moms!
Looks fantastic
Love the variety- as that truly is the spice of life!
Joyce, like a garden of flowers.
Everything was lovely! I knew you’d be uberorganized! (I did expect a small coffee bar in one corner of the room. 💜☕💜)
Does the Writer’s Block Soap make your brain cells slicky so ideas fly from your mind to your fingertips? 😉
Thanks for sharing your special place!!
Jann, LOL I love that bar of soap – right next to the Mothers and FBI sign.
I have a photo of mine, but we moved in 22 months ago and it’s still a shambles. I guess I’m only half a writer until after I get it cleaned up, huh.
A writer has a messy desk and an organized mind 🙂
I’m green with envy. In the middle of two consulting projects; just returned from my writer’s group late last night, need to organize my mess! I’ll post a photo on Twitter. Mr. Mills will understand.
LOL, yes Mr. Mills will understand!
I searched hard and was so disappointed when I couldn’t find the cookie crumbs…:~(
They are embedded in the keyboard …
My husband keeps asking me when I’m going to clean up my office. Maybe when I finish this years edits. I know where everything is in my mess. I would hate for anyone to see my desk or my whole space.
Kathy, tell him you’ll clean it up when you retire.
I need to organize my desk. I have notes and business cards all over the place. 🙂
Melissa, mine is usually a mess … But we have organized minds!
My desk looks like a small tornado went through my office. Mine is littered with glasses, cups, water bottles, printed this and that, and gum wrappers (So I don’t have the M&Ms and candy wrappers.) I clean it off and it takes about two days to mess up again.
Sherry, I can have my messed up in 10 seconds!
Dear DiAnn, your writing space is beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks, Wendy. Appreciate your kind words!
You are way to organized. Maybe that’s why you get so much done! Lol My desk collects multiple water bottles, ice tea glasses, and nuts (peanuts, cashews, almonds). Not to mention a stack of mail I must go through and a few books I’ve promised to review. I’m trying to do better!
Loretta, we work according to our personality. 🙂
You look very organized. Love all the bookshelves.
Paula, those are about 1/3 of my books!
