Volcano

When I have a big idea, I have to leave home. I wrote 50,000 words in 2 months in 25-minute chunks, in a tiny Balinese village where I hardly met anyone. Living at Amrita cafe, with a view of rice fields and Mount Agung, I knew myself differently, deeply immersed, open and absorbed. There isn’t a time I don’t long to return to that flow and the volcano view from my desk. Little and medium ideas are welcome too. In everyday life, I still use a timer set for 25 minutes, leaving the house for a cafe with an endless horizon view.
