Surround Yourself With Joy � A Look at My Office
My office has changed throughout the years. Sometimes it was nothing more than my lap or a table. After I wrote Dark Prince and Dorchester Publishing, my first publisher, asked for more in the series, I set up an office in my home up on Cobb Mountain. The room I used had been the baby’s room off our bedroom and I kept a treadmill in it. At the time, there was little money for an office or even a proper computer.

Sadly, in 2015 that house, which I’d raised my children in for so many years, burned in a fire in 2015.
In my home in Mendocino I moved around where I wrote for a bit, but had no designated space. I wrote in my bedroom. I worked for a while out of the den, but I really wanted an office that inspired me, so I asked that we empty out an old storage room that was small but led to a balcony and make that an office.
I love my new office! There are lots of windows, lots of light, a lovely view and so much space. I do share it with Brian, my son, but he has his area and I have mine.
Brian and I found ourselves doing a lot of live interviews in the office so Brian got some cameras, lights and recording equipment and we designated certain areas of the office as media areas.
I wanted to have a beautiful background with things that represented myself and my books. I’ve always loved crystals and of course I love Amur leopards so I got a set of crystal leopards to start my collection. From there I expanded to wolves and other animals that represent my books. I have a lovely tea set that I highlight. Most of my readers know I love tea and I collect tea pots.
My office gives me joy and inspires my imagination. I am happy with the different backgrounds we have for media events that we do online.
What do you love to have around you? What gives you joy?
