[quote=Anonymous]i'm a writer -- I wrote one book from home (in an office with a door that closes). when I was a reporter I often wrote articles from Big Bear Cafe or Tryst. There is something about being in a cafe this is motivating -- they bring you food, there is just enough distraction to actively tune out -- sometimes the quiet of the house lends itself to too much ruminating, but when I'm at a cafe, the hum of the crowd somehow makes me focus on my writing more intensely. For books, my home office is useful, because the books i'm referencing/my structure are all laid out in front of me. Agree with a PP that it's useful to have a quota. I would set a work count goal per week (like 3,000 words per week) and then track how much I accomplished per day.[/quote]
