, per se. I have a hard time concentrating and writing when someone else is around, even if they're quietly coccooned in their room on the other side of the lair. When I'm writing, I pace, I talk to myself, I growl at my data, I randomly get up and do dishes and laundry and clean the bathroom whenever I need to think. The presence of another person, for some reason, can disrupt all that.

I'm precisely the same way. I can't work, write or use the right hemisphere of my brain when others are around in my home. However, late at night when people are asleep.. my muse hits, or my mind turns on and I'm productive again.

Oddly.. I get my best work done *at* home..
