another treadhead is born

I don’t have a fancy tread desk like Art Slade or Gillian Chan or Helene Boudreau. Mine isn’t even as fancy as Sylvia McNicoll‘s.

Alas, my treadmill is armless so I had to be a bit creative. My son gave me the idea of giving my treadmill duct tape suspenders and using firm cardboard because it is so lightweight and I can cut it to size myself. I write on this for about 90 minutes a day. It’s not exercise, but it does add variety to my writing positions, meaning that my back is less sore at the end of a writing day.

I write historical fiction, mostly from the perspective of young people who are thrust in the midst of war.

  1. Another Treadhead

    It looks fine although you could have sprung for some fancy coloured ductape. Does that hold your laptop securely? Why not tread longer?

    I do it the whole writing day but I have to work out a way of measuring how long, as I often step off to answer the phone or get something and then the counter starts all over again.

    I await massive losses of weight. But I do think it helps back issues and alertness.
