For the next few
Wednesdays, I'm going to be doing a guest writer feature called The Wonder of
the Writer's Place. Each week, a teen writer will introduce you to their
favorite writing place and why they find this place important to them. I hope
you learn and find encouragement in what each one of these writers have to say.
Today, I'd like to welcome Victoria Tucker to my blog.
~~~
Describe briefly your
favorite place to write.
I enjoy to write at
my oaken desk next to my window in my room surrounded by posters of characters
from my favorite fandoms many signed by the actors. To my right, I have a group
of books such as notebooks and writing how-to books. I also have a business
card hanging up that an editor wrote the following on after I won this big
award I totally didn't expect to win: "Congratulations. Consider the award
confirmation from God. Go forth and WRITE!" When I'm really want to be in
the writing zone, I light candles such as my Edgar Allen Poe scented one.
Why do you
find this place important to you?
It's quiet and the
desk gives me room for my laptop, cup of tea, and sketchbook since I love to
draw my characters. The posters inspire me to create awesome characters like
the ones depicted on them. A few of the ones I have up are Zuko from Avatar:
The Last Airbender signed by Dante Basco; a poster with Gandalf, the dwarves,
and Bilbo from the Hobbit signed by Graham McTavish (Dwalin); and Kirito and
Asuna from Sword Art Online signed by Bryce Papenbrook and Cherami Leigh. They
inspire me to write awesome antiheroes, original side characters, and adorable
romances.
How has your
writing been impacted by this place?
I feel like I can
concentrate the most in it. I have little distractions and I can really focus
on my writing. If write in the living room or other locations, I often find
myself too scatterbrained.
Three
words only to describe the necessity for all writers to have a writing place.
Tranquility is
important.
