Did you know these famous writers wrote in the nude?


If writing in the nude worked for the famous writers below, and if you don't already do it, would you consider writing in the nude if it means writing a well received novel or play?






Agatha Christie the famous mystery writer is known to write in many places including 'nude' in the bath, well it would have been stranger if she wore her clothes in the bath, with or without water.







D.H. Lawrence is known to take all his clothes off, then climbed a Mulberry tree then after sometime climbed back down again and write nude.






Benjamin Franklin is said to have stood around in a cold room for at least an hour to get the writing juices flowing. His best know writing is 'Poor Richards Almanac,' under the pseudonym Richard Saunders. He is said to have helped Thomas Jefferson edit the 'declaration of independence.' I wonder if he edited that in the nude?   




Well Ernest Hemingway is not standing in the nude in this photo with a typewriter at waist level, perhaps he is not really writing, but mealy posing for a photo, you know for publicity. 



Victor Hugo without the beard in the mid 1800's when he wrote the famous

 'Les Miserables'

'The Hunchback of Notre-dame'



Victor Hugo with the famous beard, it is said that he got his servants to take all his clothes away for the day so all he could do was sit and write.
I wonder how many current famous writers write in the nude?
