An easy DIY desk creates perfect writing space

In an ongoing quest to delve further into freelance writing, I've been seeking out advice, reading a LOT and taking some courses. I've also convinced my husband to build me a desk so I could have a specific space for writing. And, it got done this weekend! The project maybe took an hour and a half. Pretty simple.

This tiny space is mine. And it has a door to separate
me from the noise of the TV.  (photo by Anna Jauhola)
It's not much. It's actually in the front entryway, which is tiny. You see, the house we live in is super tiny. Our bed pretty much takes up our bedroom, which leaves no space for a desk. Jacob's room is his, I can't use that.
I was using the table, but the TV is a huge distraction with the volume way up.
But when my desk was done, I sat down and closed the door, and I could barely hear the TV, which is just on the other side. BLISS.
It will be colder than a witch's thorax in the winter. BUT. It's mine and I love bundling up. Also, a space heater might help, along with some sort of stylish covering for the outside door.
I already was quite productive this weekend in my little office.
It'll be exciting to have this space, even in subzero temperatures. Hot coffee or tea will sustain me. Words and hard work will fuel my ability to stay motivated.
Here's to productivity!
