I just saw this on Book Girl‘s review site and thought it’d be fun.
Here’s the idea. It’s What’s on your desk Wednesday, hosted by Alternative-Read.com
Here’s what you do:
Grab a camera and take a photo of your desk. Or anywhere you stack your books/TBR pile. And no tidying.
Add this photo to your blog.
Tag at least 5 people!
Come back here, to Lori Brighton blog or go to Book Girl, and leave a link back to your photo in the comments section.
If you don’t have a digital camera or blog of your own, do this:
List at least 5 BOOKISH things on your desk.
List at least 5 NON BOOK things.
Tag at least 5 people to do the same.
Come back and leave your link, or add your answers in the comments.
I finally have an office, unfortunately it’s a disaster. Here’s my list since I haven’t a clue where the camera is.
Non Bookish
1. A dead Sea Urchin, purple, and sand dollar found in Florida.
2. An Ivory Wrap/Pashmina from Nadia. Thanks Nadia!
3. Peanut M&Ms.
4. Art work by Amy Abshier and Melissa Nucera
5. My Cat
Bookish
1. “How to See Yourself” by the Dalai Lama (he rocks!).
2. “The Accidental Bestseller” by Wendy Wax (who I’ll be interviewing in the near future).
3. A painting of my heroine by Heather at Audrey Eclectic
4. A copy of my final edits for Wild Heart.
5. The Lion’s Lady by Julie Garwood
Okay, now your turn. Tell me, what do you have on your desk?
Wow you actually have books on your table 🙂
I do wonder why I haven’t any. Must be my tidy streak, and if I have one there it’s just for some minutes.
Read what you said about reviews, and so true. I would have my heart in my throat. But then again. There are so many people on this earth, and even if some do not like a book, others will love it 🙂
ummm…. I thought you were suppose to be working on your next book…. lol
Only five bookish things? A printed ms., a dictionary, synopsis, notes, three notebooks.
Non-bookish: a mug of tea, telephone, meditation CD, Olive Garden take-out menu, and a stapler.
You’ll have to give me a pass on tagging five other people. I don’t think I’ll blog this week. I want to finish my revisions.
Wow…my desk isn’t that big. Let’s see…I have a globe, dice from Vegas, a stack of my mom’s medical stuff, a card from a friend and a Killian’s bottle. Sad, there are no books on my desk!
Way to go, Amy!
Um, couldn’t you give me more warning?
5 bookish things
laptop
index cards
pen
The Marshall Plan Workbook
Plot & Structure
Characters & Viewpoint
Non bookish things
Aloe lotion
Loratadine
calculator
glass of water

Amy, don’t make me block you from leaving comments.
Renee, I had to look up Loratadine, I was a bit worried there at first 😉 Orange nail polish, very interesting!
Jen, I hope that isn’t your work desk you’re describing. Gambling and beer. i’m shaking my head right now!
Edie, I love olive garden!
Blodeuedd, yes, I actually have books on my desk! all half read. lol. and by the way, thanks for this! I really enjoy your blog!
Here’s a pic of my desk with contents labeled: http://gigmatrix.com/images/767.jpg
OMG, Aaron, you have way too much time on your hands. lol.
Although, the poster, the mug and the blog on your computer says you have very good taste.;)
P.S.
Thats what I should do! Make mugs with my picture on them to hand out!
Lori, sign me up for a personalized mug! I would use it every day!
Jen, would you put your Killians in it and tell people at work that its just tea?
Yes, yes I would!
