Looks like you've got a lot of word Ally!!! Good Luck! First Comment Woooooo
Wow. It looks like a lot of stuff in a tiny space. Where do you put the Diet Coke, mini Kit-Kats, and the popcorn?
good luck with all that
-H.
it looks alot like my desk for school (i'm homeschooled)... it almost looks like fun! keep up the good work ally! i LOVE your books and can't wait to read the next ones:):):)
Ahh. Wow. That looks like a lot of work. =D But, it will be worth it in the end. When you have your wonderful book out, and you have us fans praising you.
Your chair does not look very comfortable...
dang, that's a lot of writing mess...but it kinda looks like fun...especially if you add the kit-kats, popcorn, and coke to the mix. ^_^
Briana
wow. that looks just a bit crazy
Whoa. That's a lot of stuff. Good luck with the copy-editing and all.

Wow, no wonder you get loopy. Pretty small, bleak space. I totally understand the need for Diet Coke and Kit Kat pick me ups.
You need a desk lamp I think...
and, like erin said, where do you put the food?!? There is like no room there. But I shouldn't be talking... I mean, look at my desk!
(I'll post a picture on my blog soon)
that's a jail cell of a space. its awesome to think that such an amazing story will blossom within it. all your fans are rooting you on! keep pushing!
Wow, too much work and not enough space. Good luck Ally! Looks like you need it, as well as a sale on mini Kit-Kats.
that looks slightly disorganized in a good way...like as if you're getting stuff done...
wow. good luck! :)

oh boy :| haha well, good work comes in handy at the end (i can't wait untill next year!)
wow, it takes a lot to do that!! lol :p have... fun? maybe not. :( i can't wait till the third book is out, so please be quick!! i dont kno what im gonna do until june 9th... there really needs to be more gg fanfiction.
*tries to zoom in on manuscript*
Kidding. :) Good luck, Ally! I applaud you for working in such a small space. I wouldn't be able to do that.
Wow. Very organized! I love how the random copy of GG2 is there. For copy-editing not boredom reading purposes only right? =p
Good luck!
it kindof reminds me of when i have a HUGE SS project (my least favorite subject) and im talking about one of the projects that includes like a 3 page paper and model. i sit ther bored 4eva trying to convince myself 2 work little by little but in the end im super proud and u will b 2 and well be proud of u 2! can't wait!!!
Wow, it looks very...buissnessy? Have fun with all of that lol. At least you do have Diet Coke, chocolate, and popcorn.=D It looks soooo much funner than writing a 5 PAGE PAPER on the Luddites (which I just finished doing, talk about B-O-R-I-N-G!!!). I would love to trade places with you any day. Tiny closet space and all. Good luck!=D

HEEHEE! thats probably what my room/desk will look like while editing my novels (if i ever get one finished. I always used to wonder why it took authors so long to come out with the next book in a series.... I have gotten a better idea since i started working on novels my self.
whoa Ally, you need to get yourself organized! oh, and get some color on those walls, maybe a picture or really cool paint job. by the way, lay off the soda, it's bad for u, u know?

Hi Ally!
I'm so excited for GG3 and your Heist/Kat book, its crazy. Good luck with the rest of your editing.
I found something kind of exciting...
I just was looking on www.tv.com and saw something that made me think of you. Apparently, the CW website is now airing part of the first season of some shows - including VERONICA MARS. Here's the link to the article,

I know you love and miss that show, so I thought you might enjoy seeing it again (unless, of course, you own the discs on DVD). Even so, I just wanted to let you know! Good luck with everything =]

Hi, it's Lily again. I made a mistake in my last comment, I said it was the CW website, but I was wrong - it's the Warner Brothers website. Whoops, sorry about that! I hope you enjoy the info, though!
=]
-Lily
Awesome....
Woo! Look at how much is going on at that desk! You should seriously consider yourself some more room!It seems more stressful than fun.
looks like my sister's room - small enough to make a 13 year old whine and messy enough to make her comfortable with that. ( queston : do spies go to college)
Looks like you're all set. All a writter could ever need. =]
