Here's a modern radiant heater (at 800 watts) at Amazon that will warm up an entire living room:

I've mounted mine about 7½ feet above the floor, and removed the wire guard for more heat transmission.
To double your heating capacity, aim it at your wood stove. It will re-radiate heat long after youve turned the radiant heater OFF! 
Even in Florida, I'll have chilly days at the computer. Try a small heating pad under your feet, but wear shoes or slippers, as it'll be HOT.
Everybody's different, but if my feet are warm, I'm a happy camper!

You can disagree all you want, but 800 watts is 800 watts. You'll be warmer if you move your resistive heater closer to you. They are not efficient ways to heat your home.
