Seating arrangements

Well, we'll see how this works out. Yet another try at a new chair - a yard-sale find, therefore sufficiently inexpensive that I can gamble on it not working out and having to be tossed. It has better back-support than the poor spavined old Eames chair, but is low enough that my feet are comfortable on the floor, and wide enough to sit cross-legged in.

My apologies for so massive a Continuing Saga about what I sit on to write, but as those writers out there know, it matters. A writer's primary relationships are with the current project's characters, the computer, the chair, the word-processing program, and the cats, with husband and family (if under the same roof) running far behind. Even when I was married, I was spending FAR more time with Benjamin January, Luke Skywalker, and the desk chair than I was with poor George.

For those of you who are espoused to writers, you know, That's The Deal. (Among many other things) If you can't take the stillness, marry somebody normal.

Like Ripley in her Power Loader taking on the Alien Queen, you gotta be comfortably situated so you can get your job done.
