Amy Bloom is an award-winning writer and author, whose little backyard writing studio behind her home in central Connecticut recalls Thoreau’s little cabin on Walden Pond.   Amy’s wonderful retreat is featured in Debra Prinzing’s equally terrific book, Stylish Sheds and Elegant Hideaways, a must-read for the getaway in all of us.

The little building, nestled in a wooded setting, fits naturally among the gray barked trees with its naturally weathering exterior clapboard.  Warm ambient lighting washes a knotty-pine interior, emanating a yellow glow through the significant window surfaces.  The contrast between the grayness of winter and the sun-like glow of the interior make for a magnetic pull both to the eye and the spirit.   See Debra’s book for some great interior shots.
