Out of all the arts, writers are the most low maintenance of the lot. We only really need two things: something to write on and with and a quiet spot where we can think.
That said, being comfortable and having items or experiences that support you in your craft are fantastic as well, so small physical comforts, whimsical additions to your space, or experiences that enhance your productivity, boost your creativity, or shift your work into a higher gear are all a plus.
