Where I'd love to write....

The sensational S C. Mitchell wants to know what my ideal writing retreat is like.  If you've wandered over from Kim Handysides (isn't she simply lovely?), welcome. If you missed her, make sure to go back and visit.

To say I've spent time thinking about this would be an understatement. I have a Pinterest board. 

Now I love nature and I need solitude (really a good hiding place from the small humans living in my house). And I love Treehouse Masters show on Animal Planet. It would have a ton of natural light, solar power supplemented as needed by traditional power, yards of bookcases and loads of wall space for my plotting notes.

This one tickles my whimsical fancy. I'd feel like a fairy and maybe even wear my daughter's wings if I had this amazing retreat!

I definitely need a deck. Maybe a suspended bridge, too. And more French doors to welcome the outdoors in than I can count.

But this treehouse really resonates with me. It looks like it has a soul. Completely welcoming, open, warm, with the winding bridge. 

With lovely wall-to-ceiling bookcases, there would be soft leather club chairs to curl up in to edit and read for pleasure. Candles for scent, discreet speakers for music to set the mood for the scene I'm writing.

A must have kitchenette for coffee and snacks in one corner, small half bath and a comfy bed with super fluffy duvet and pillows for those necessary naps. 

Oh and a super strong lock for the front door to keep the Zen-stealers at bay.

So what do you think? Does a treehouse do it for you? Leave me a comment! Now to our next awesome author, Collette Cameron. I'll bet her ideal writing retreat has some blue roses integrated....
