'Cribs' for the Literati

As part of a really cool visual project, professional photographer Kyle Cassidy has been compiling images of famous science fiction and fantasy writers in their personal creative spaces.  The website for the project is WhereIWrite.org.  It's a fascinating collection of snapshots that give us a glimpse into these artists' surroundings where they spill their imaginations onto the page, and from there we get a glimpse into the artists themselves.

Featured writers include Joe Haldeman, Margaret Weis, and even famed fantasist Neil Gaiman.  The private domains, sometimes disheveled and in varying states of traditional organization, seem to pulse with creative energy as captured through Cassidy's lens.  They contain artifacts such as creepy half mannequins, big black cats, and giant eyeballs atop bookcases.

I've got my own plans to build a formidable writer's fortress one day.  A site like this is a great source of inspiration.
