Why Not a Magical Misfit Book Mobile?

Artist, writer, farmer and animal rescuer Katherine Dunn is about to do something very special, sparklingly original and healing. Think of it as a combination performance art, pet therapy, and bibliotherapy. And yes-- my writing assistants approve-- it includes a handsome pug! 

Check it out her page for this project at Kickstarter. Watch the video (screen shot below) there as well.

Writers Tool: StandStand the Portable Standing Desk

Hat tip to Swiss Miss: I am so psyched to learn about this Kickstarter project, the StandStand portable standing desk, because it looks like exactly what I need-- but at a fraction of the cost offered elsewhere. Plus, it's portable. I ordered the bamboo model, and fingers crossed, I'll be able to start using it in December.

The thing is, as a writer, I spent way too much time sitting down. Specifically, I'd like the option of being able to do email while standing (and maybe even hopping around some). Yes, I could balance the laptop on a cardboard box or a stack of books, but that's bulky, awkward, and definitely not easily portable.
