    We’re still working on importing posts from Blogger and a few other tweaks, BUT until then, please to enjoy my first video post.

    Women have sat indoors all these millions of years, so that by this time the very walls are permeated by their creative force, which has, indeed, so overcharged the capacity of bricks and mortar that it must needs harness itself to pens and brushes and business and politics.

    Intellectual freedom depends on material things. Poetry depends upon intellectual freedom, and women have always been poor, not for two hundred years, but from the beginning of time … That is why I have laid so much stress on money and a room of one’s own.

    Hi Allena,

    Nice office setup! It looks like a very comfy, cozy, and productive workspace. Love the burning candle. :o)

    Thanks for sharing. And congrats on your first video post!

    Wishing you the best of success.

    Hugs,

    Hi Allena! Congratulations!!! I am having a little office envy; I write in a 70s, panelled basement. But, I am using it as motivation- I will re-vamp this space (or move on up) with my earnings from my writing!
    You are an inspiration. I love your approachability and genuineness.
    Keep up the positive vibe~
    Continued Success!

    lol I totally cleaned up! The office is really a fluke/stroke of luck- when we bought the house we weren’t sure how many children we were going to have, and then when we settled at two, we had an extra bedroom.
