Online writers do not have it as easy as their newspaper, magazine and book author counterparts. Indeed, most online writers are not paid much for their creative work or non-fiction articles. It's not because online writers have been pushed down and there is no conspiracy there, it's just that there is a supply and demand dynamic at play. Too many writers and not enough folks willing to pay for what they write.
The other day I was discussing this with a friend and we both agreed that the answer is efficiency. True enough and this led me to re-consider the importance of the perfect writing work station to remain at a peak of efficiency and productivity in writing. So, what if we could design the perfect work station for the online writer? What would it be like?
When everything is within reach, you do not waste motion or time; total efficiency. Now as I write this I am considering that a "C" shaped table might be an idea for me. Where I am sitting inside the "C" with the top of the "C" being the full table and all my reference stuff around me, as that would be an even better set-up than I have now. I believe that every writer that wishes to make it online needs to pay special attention to their workstation and its' efficiency.
And let's not forget sustenance. So much time is wasted when employees in corporation get up from their cubical to go get coffee or snacks. With this in mind, on the larger table alongside my laptop, I place any food, lunch, or snacks, along with something to drink. The key is efficiency and thus, writers should not neglect the need for a viable and productive workspace. Think on this.
