Where I Work: Lois Lowry

Here you have it: my summer workplace, photos taken a few moments ago.  This is my house in Maine, which was built in 1768, and this room (which I call my studio) is attached to the barn, and once held feed bins and harnesses. When I renovated it and made it into my workspace, I kept the old beams and barnboards and you can see (though not in this photo) the hand-hewn nails.  Two best things: 1. my dog, Tibetan Terrier Alfie, who is always by my side, and on this hot Sunday afternoon is lying on the floor half asleep; and 2. the view from my windows here of my gardens, my meadow, and down the hill, the lake.
