Notes

A desk by the window

I moved it half a metre and started working better.

Freja Ås

For two years my desk faced a wall. I thought that helped me focus. It did not. It helped me stare at a wall.

I moved it to the window. Now I see a tree, a bit of street and the neighbour's cat. When I get stuck I look at the tree for a minute and then I am not stuck.

What is on it

Laptop, a notebook, a cup, flowers when I remember. Nothing else. Everything else is in a drawer I try not to open.

    Mine faces a bookshelf. I think that might be worse than a wall.
