Thanks for these links, Elizabeth. You always have such useful ones here! I'm glad there's one about having a designated writing space. For people with day jobs, it can be a challenge to see their writing as a profession, too, just like the day job. having that space is a good reminder if that. Plus it helps keep a person more organized.
It can be a great way to get into writing mode and stay organized, for sure!
