the truth

People mostly fib about their workplaces.
I should know, I’ve done it myself plenty of times.
When asked for a photograph, writers and illustrators hastily clear away the tat and old coffee cups and artfully arrange the tools of their trade into a seemingly natural, carefree scene.

I thought perhaps I’d be brave and show you not what’s ON my desk but what’s BEHIND it. You will see that:
my reading material is not especially intellectual;
I don’t wash my paints out promptly;
I sometimes use children’s art materials;
my deer’s head needs hanging:
I have a bit of A Thing about patterned tape;
I have 10 metres of campervan ribbon and I now can’t remember why;
it’s no wonder I can never find my glasses if their case now houses lots of small rubber animals and, yes, crawling babies.

Now I’ve done it, would you consider doing it too?
