So, is this what your desk looks like? Computer front and center, your choice of beverage to the side, and a note pad on the other? It's all this nice and neat, right? Yeah, me neither.

So, how the writing going, everyone? Any victories, any stumbling blocks?

When I complete a novel I set it aside, and begin work on short stories, and eventually another long work. When I complete that novel I return to the earlier novel and rewrite much of it. In the meantime the second novel lies in a desk drawer. -- Joyce Carol Oates

My actual writing situation most of these days:

(I don't know why I bothered to blur the editor and then rescaled the image to postage stamp. I'm sometimes not a very logical person)

Just my laptop and monitor and keyboard and mouse. I do have my desk mat from the 1990s (as you can guess from the colour scheme). Also my photo storage hard drive, and behind the monitor you can get a glimpse of my containerised enterprise application infrastructure (an ancient USB 2.0 hard drive on which I keep my Docker shit. There's a Raspberry Pi sitting behind it.)

Iced tea was out of the frame somehow. Along with bunch of soup cans serving as pen holders, a basket full of USB cables and junk, and other random stuff.

Writing is, well, progressing a little bit. ...gotta get back to writing actually, bye
