millionsmillions: Where do you write? Where do you work? Where do you update your Tumblr? The spaces in which we create can ultimately take on enhanced significance; we are, in a sense, where we’re from — and, beyond that, our words, in a sense, are what they are because of where they originate. In Let the Great World Spin, Colum McCann writes of leaving one’s hometown: “We bring home with us when we leave. Sometimes it becomes more acute for the fact of having left.” But couldn’t that be said of desks, or workspaces as well? We’ve asked a handful of our regular site contributors to show us their creative lairs, and now we’re asking you to share yours with us as well. Tag your photos on Twitter with the hashtag #writespace, or feel free to share them on Tumblr with the same designation. We’ll post our favorites in the coming days. View high resolution
