I work from home. In the roof
space to be precise. There is no natural
light up there, but I can hear ravens scuttling over slates, wind
testing the tiles, and the roar of rain so fresh from the Atlantic you can
smell the salt water running off the roof. My PC in the roof has an
internet connection that lets me peer through granite end walls to check
the surf at webcams 10 miles away at Gwithian Towans or 4 miles away at
Porthtowan. This sounds like a lifestyle thing, but it is work too. The
boundaries between work and non-work, work and home become very blurred
for professional writers. Nowadays, among other things, I write about the
surf and surfing. I also ride the surf for pleasure. I ought to claim a
proportion of expenditure on surfboard wax for business use.
