Ah! First of all, I love (and miss) BookPeople in Austin. And I guess I'm a "Lindsay Leslie" style writer--title first, idea formed before writing is the main way I get anything done.

Second, I love your writing shed even more than I already did, somehow! You've shown pics before, of course, but this view looks particularly inviting. Is the bed part a built-in?

Third, if you haven't used your chalkboard tape yet, that seems like just the thing to line the back of a door with--your plan for the week kind of thing? Or maybe something portable--a clipboard or the backside of a marker board (if the back of the markerboard is just cardboard or whatever)?

Fourth, I love zines, too--and this reminds me that I was working on two of them -- "Things I Missed About the U.S. While in Oz" and "Things I Missed About Oz While in the U.S." but I never finished either! I should get back to work on those sometime soon!

Finally, "the way to be a productive writer is to trick yourself into writing!" is completely spot-on. Unfortunately, sometimes we are too wily for our best-intentioned selves. LOL!
