I love these pictures of some well known science fiction writer’s “offices” where they get their work done.  Overall, the level of clutter is stupendous. I couldn’t imagine getting anything done in some of these rooms, except maybe having an anxiety attack, let alone write a book.  It makes me wonder how someone could focus on any one task in that kind of space.

I love the unabashed crapulence of it all.  Clearly some of these writers love their space.  These are “man caves” of the highest order (the ladies seem to have a much higher level of aesthetics and organization overall).  Wilson, you clearly need to start adopting some habits from these crazy old hermits to become a successful writer.  Also, sweatpants and a huge beard help with the mystique quite a bit:

Saw it on Boing Boing this morning.  Great stuff.

Makes me wonder why I don’t have a man cave.  Although I don’t really have anything to put in it, nor any time to be there.  Hm, that’s probably why I don’t have one.
