Where I Work: Maggie Stiefvater
I am, in fact, perfectly capable of writing anywhere. I traveled so much for the books last year that I had to learn how to work anywhere—I wrote The Raven Boys on planes and trains, in hotel rooms and the backseats of cars, tucked into the corner of conferences and sitting in a quiet room at a dairy farm. The most important thing for me is music; I always have to have my headphones on while I work, and then I’m all right.
Now. Just because I can work anywhere doesn’t mean I don’t have a favorite place. This year, my husband and I bought our first house (and hopefully our last one), and I’ve finally got my office precisely how I like it. During the day, I answer e-mails and revise manuscripts at my desk. I have a yoga ball chair because I’m not good at sitting still, and it lets me sit still while not sitting still. And then in the evening, when I’m tired of bouncing and e-mails, I collapse into the chair in the corner, fire up my laptop, and do most of my writing in the evening after the business world has quieted down.

I know it’s unfair and unrealistic and silly to idolise people, but Maggie Stiefvater is a terrific person. Just saying.
