Jared Axelrod is an author, an illustrator, a graphic designer, a sculptor, a costume designer, a podcaster and quite a few other things that he's lost track of but will no doubt remember when the situation calls for it.
He is a founding member of the daily flash-fiction website 365 TOMORROWS, and the writer and producer of two science-fiction podcasts, “The Voice Of Free Planet X” and the serial “Aliens You Will Meet.
He is not domestic, he is a luxury, and in that sense, necessary.

Our Home Is Now Furnished!

It is my tendency to sprawl. I can frequently be found laid about in awkward angles over all sorts of furniture, pounding out wondrous fiction on my Son of Man laptop. Luckily, my wife is the same way (though she has her own laptop, which is René Magritte-free), so it came to pass that if this is how we live anyway, we might as well have the furniture to go with.
Hence, a massive amount of IKEA furniture was purchased, the old broken furniture was removed, and a new dawn of the Axelrod/Blackwell household was born!
Foyer!
How inviting is this? Answer: So inviting! And the table folds out to desks for some wonderful sunlight-dappled rough-drafting!
Living Room!
Also known as The Library! You will notice there is a sofa in this picture! That is not something this room has ever seen since we moved it! It is great for naps–I mean, edits!
The Dining Room!
As with all proper dining rooms, the table matches the sword-rack! Also, it expands for dinner parties (the table, not the sword rack. The sword-rack works quite well for dinner parties as it is)
All in all, a veritable plethora of furniture to lay around and write upon. Which is what we primarily use it for.

Working from home 90% of the time and owning a laptop I work much like you do, for years I was confined to my one recliner but this year I too decked the living room with a big red comfy couch and I do most of my work there now, swapping with the stand by recliner every so often for a change of pace. You’d never know it was an office by looking at it
