I did get a Smith Corona portable typewriter at the age of twelve and used it to death. When we bought our sons the Apple computer, they taught me how to use Appleworks which I loved. After that I switched to Microsoft computers. I now do all my first drafts on computer since it's more convenient. No beautiful view in the bedrooms where our computers are set up. Our living room area does have a great view of the Hudson though.Jacqueline Seewaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177500620940251009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4994072470312639837.post-16414750815145728962019-10-18T23:29:04.986-07:002019-10-18T23:29:04.986-07:00Thanks for your comment, Maggie.

And the garret in Paris also sounds good. When I was younger I was infatuated with Hemingway, Fitzgerald and the whole Left Bank expat scene. So that really does sound good. As for now, I have a nice view, but I have to look past the messy desk to see it :-) .Paul D.

I would take my daily walks on the beach and come up with endless plot ideas. Or there’s the garret in Paris where I would turn out endless pages. Alas, I work out of a converted bedroom in a split- level in Richmond, VA. My view is my messy desk with a hutch and a plant that’s seen better days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4994072470312639837.post-38585774625846214742019-10-18T15:54:20.689-07:002019-10-18T15:54:20.689-07:00You might be right, Susan.

I don't have notes on my wall, but they clutter my desk and computer files. And I do love the one that you mention. That's the key, isn't it?Paul D.

But that's saying something that you wanted that computer so badly. We bought a refurbished Asus for Amy to use on the train and it was fine for several years but finally bit the dust. And it's great if you ahve someone who really knows and can fix computers. Your office and system sounds great.Paul D.

One of the best investments I ever made. I figure I am worth far more alive than dead. I have upgraded my computer every now and then. A computer guy built many of my computers to my specifications. Now that he's semi-retired, he just fixes them. The first laptop was a refurbished one. It will be that last refurbished anything I buy on-line. But like you, Paul, my office is the best place to get work done. I can switch between the two computers on my desk with the KVM switch that links the two. As long as the power stays on, I keep writing.GBPoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12190573764848658894noreply@blogger.com
