Travelling helps me write. It's the feeling of having so much time to kill in departure lounges. I can be anonymous, shut the world out, and lose myself in the characters. I can look around and see people I have never seen before and borrow their physical traits and mannerisms.
Today I have the added fortune of travelling business class for the first time, and am three cocktails and one chapter in to my second novel, the psychological thriller DEER LEAP.
I'm not sure if booze helps or not, but it is certainly making the experience very enjoyable!
I hope to have more progress to share when I am back from South Africa.
