Where to put those books that haven't been 'lent' to friends, or carried into the sea by a sausage dog (sorry Gore Vidal, your 'Creation' was subject to this) or destroyed in a fit of pique (the bloody Celestine Prophecies, what a load of bunk)...

The Dedalo bookcase by Porada is one of the best designed I have seen, but price info is suspiciously elusive, meaning it must cost a shocking amount of money.

This is a good round up of 30 creative bookshelf designs

Quick inspiration

To write in plain, vigorous language one has to think fearlessly, and if one thinks fearlessly one cannot be politically orthodox

George Orwell

What's going on?

What are you listening to at the moment?

An A-ha mash-up

If you have Spotify (download it, it's free and a very useful way of listening to music) you can listen to a playlist of what I like at the moment

What are you reading at the moment?

The brief wondrous life of Oscar Wao

What are you thinking about at the moment?

Everything.

What are you working on at the moment?

A painting of a raven and a pomegranate

And noodling about on the guitar

Returning to the arrangement of words for novels, like a shipwrecked sailor ordering the pebbles of a beach to spell out SOS - or perhaps 'wish you were here', to passing planes.
