Scene of the Blog-- Swapna Krishna of S. Krishna's Books


This week we all get to meet one of the busiest book bloggers in the blogosphere, Swapna Krishna of S. Krishna's Books. Busy? She's been married less than a year, she's studying for her Master's degree in the Washington, DC metro area, and she still finds time to read lots of books and blog about them! She's very close to her grad school finals, yet found the time to read over fourteen books in a little over eleven hours in this past weekend's Readathon. Wow!

Something tells me that this is one organized woman who knows how to prioritize her time in order to enjoy the things that are truly important to her. If you haven't visited her blog, please make the time to do so. It's excellent!

Let's take a look at her blogging space. (Click on the photo to view it full size.)



There really isn't much explanation. The chair is my "reading chair" where I do all my reading. I usually take my laptop over to the chair and do most of my blogging sitting in it as well.


Short and to the point for a busy blogger! In this case the photo more than fills in any gaps. That's a very comfortable-looking chair and ottoman. The pillow glows in the light from the lamp. There's a drink at hand on the table, and a view available out the window. A stack of books and her laptop completes the scene. All in all, a lovely, welcoming space to be creative!

Thanks so very much for allowing us to take a peek at your blogging space, Swapna. We really appreciate it!

Where will Scene of the Blog take us next week? We'll be taking a trip to Washington state to visit Michele of A Reader's Respite. See you then!

  4. Is that a red laptop? I love it how it goes with the pillow. I would love a big, comfy reading chair like that. The only question is: how do you stay awake sitting in it?! It looks so comfortable that I would probably be dozing off every few pages -:)

  5. I look forward to this posting every week -- just love it!!

    By looking at her space I would agree -- I think she is incredibly well organized, and I marvel at how much she is able to accomplish in a 24 hour period!

  7. Ooh...looks like a very comfortable blogging and reading spot. I've been on the hunt for a comfortable yet attractive reading chair for some time. It's hard to find a chair with both qualities!

  8. What a gorgeous place to blog and read - looks very inviting and restful. You can tell how organized she is by looking at her space.

    I checked out her blog and was so impressed I added to my Google Reader to follow along.

  12. @Kara - Thanks for the compliment!

    @lilly - It is a red laptop! Red is my favorite color.

    The room has actually changed a little bit since this picture was taken - we painted it yellow! It really brightened the room up, but increased its coziness.

    I'm not going to lie, I have fallen asleep a couple of times in it...

  19. That looks so comfy! I had a feeling if I had that chair I would do a heck of a lot of napping and very little reading or blogging.

  20. I had to go back and look at the picture again after seeing a comment about the coordinating laptop and pillow - cute!

  23. I remember when Swapna blogged about getting that comfy chair! It looks like a well-equipped place to read and blog.

  24. I love how the pillow and the laptop are coordinated! And that does look comfy...I think I would end up sleeping instead of reading or blogging. And she kind of intimidates me in what she is able to accomplish ... I feel a bit lazy by comparison!

  25. I love that red laptop. The chair does look comfortable. And the room looks bright. Great shot.

  26. What a great place to blog, but I think I'd be doing more napping than blogging. That looks like a super comfy chair.
