The Guardian has a special on the writing rooms of various British authors. Most of the rooms look very neat and organized. One would understand how dead author’s rooms would be clean and I’m guessing most of the living authors knew the photo journalist was coming so they, no doubt, cleaned up real quick.
Do the rooms really look this clean? If so, we might have a reason for my writing ineptness. Almost makes me want to clean and take a quick photo. The royalties will come pouring in then.
