  3. Thanks for posting this fascinating - and indeed epic - post - it has really got me thinking. I love the idea of writerly dress in particular. have you read "Among the bohemians - experiments in living 1900-1939"? I have just finished it and intend to post on it as soon as I can - it has a whoel section on dress.

    Lovely post - thanks for sharing.

  5. Amazing post!! I could certainly use a writer's chamber or, even better, an intimidating stone tower of my own where no one would disturb me while I worked...or even while I napped ;)
    Best,

    I was enthralled by Tor House when I visited.

  10. If I were a writer, I would choose Rene Crevel as my main accoutrement.

  11. Your picture of an insperon, as you probably aware, is actually a picture of a subway car. Your 'lucabration cabnet' is a patient in an iron lung. The Nooklopia is a picture of a diving helmet. Where does truth begin and fiction end on this blog?
