Writers in Thier Element

A four Christmases ago, I got a book called American Writers at Home from Stacey and JR. It's a really neat book about the homes of iconic American writers such as Twain, Emerson, Melville, Whitman. It's a great blending of my two main interests, architecture and writing.

In an interesting modern version, here's the website of Kyle Cassidy, a photographer who has a series of photos depicting modern science-fiction and fantasy writers. They are wonderfully varied. One thread through many of them is the inclusion of the pets. It's definitely worth a look.

Fascinating!

Though I find it disconcerting that a SF writer writes by open flame with pen and paper.

That just seems.... wrong.
