Today is the day. Pub day. It’s surreal to say it out loud. I’m going to walk around with a case of the nerves all day but I took the first leap. Might as well keep on walking.

A quick trip was made to the local Wal-Mart to buy a desk and bookcase. An overnight assembly was required and the next morning I moved all my things upstairs. Yes! It is beautiful! Finally. A place to call my own.
What do you think? What does your writing space look like?
