To get the right word in the right place is a rare achievement. To condense the diffused light of a page of thought into the luminous flash of a single sentence, is worthy to rank as a prize composition just by itself... Anybody can have ideas, the difficulty is to express them without squandering a quire of paper on an idea that ought to be reduced to one glittering paragraph. -- Mark Twain

Writers' Rooms
I never get tired of looking at the rooms where writers work. An example below (photo from the NY Times).

Wow, never even heard of these writers and that's pretty bad! With that said, their places are very neat and simple...my guest bedroom where I do all my sewing has everything all about...books, patterns, fabrics, projects 1/2 finished and threads...and like you I never get tired of looking a work rooms, always looking for ideas and wondered how other lives.
