Begin Writing

A practical guide for midlife writers beginning their journey

Creating Your Writing Space

Your writing space doesn't need to be elaborate. Whether it's a corner of your kitchen table or a dedicated desk, what matters is that it's a place where you can focus. Here's what to consider:

  • Choose a spot with minimal distractions
  • Ensure good lighting and comfortable seating
  • Keep your writing tools easily accessible
  • Consider using noise-canceling headphones if needed

Pro Tip

Many successful writers we've worked with find that having a dedicated space, even if small, helps signal to their brain that it's time to write.
