I’m in Hawaii, with some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. I enjoy the starkness of the lava fields and can write easily, in isolation here. Most writers and artists I know enjoy their own company. We value our solitude while we also want to congregate with others.

We also use the time readily for our own creations. I’ll be back home soon, and meeting with other writers in groups. I enjoy that too.

Either way a writer, and other artists as well, need to get used to the isolation, and sometimes relish it.

I’ll be blogging on Thursdays. Follow me here.
