Stand Right, Stand Write



When I write I have several options of where and how I write. I curl up with my laptop on the sofa, on the sun lounger or under the pergola. I grab a pen and pad, walk to a shady spot in the vineyards and scribble the hours away. I sit at the coffee shop table on a wicker chair, at the dining table or at my desk. One thing I never do is stand up to write.

Apparently Ernest Hemingway, Virginia Woolf and others used stand up desks and wrote. I cannot bring myself to do it, to me it seems unnatural.

Get Up, Stand Up For Your Writing

What do you do? How and where do you write? Do you stand?

Weird. I sit on my bed to write. Mostly because I don't have a desk or have space for one.

I have an office/schoolroom so when we aren't having school I'm here at my big L-shaped desk. Occasionally, when my son is doing his seat work papers I will write in the dining room on my laptop. I would probably be better off standing I get stiff sitting sometimes from my arthritis.

The idea of standing up to write does seem strange, although apparently it's a way to expend more calories than by sitting down...

I'm always at my desk if using the computer, but I can write anywhere in my notebook as long as I have somewhere to sit.

I sit when I write. I write everything out long hand first and then type it later. So I can pretty much write anywhere I want to.

I sit with a coffee cup in one hand and a computer in the other.

I don't think I could write standing up. I do best sitting alone with my computer in my 'writing room.'

Thanks for dropping in, I tried standing up, but couldn't get my mind to relax!

I might give standing up a try....but before long I will probably be back in my big comfy chair!

I could never stand and write, but I do get up quite a few times to vacuum or do laundry just to take a break and think.

Thanks for all your comments. I still have not found anyone who stands and writes.
