Budapest - A Book of Writing

Travel in country or in mind, does it matter? Jot down what you see and what you don't. Fill in the empty places with possibilities. Amuse yourself make-believing your own imagined place. Sketch the landscape, the flora and fauna, the manifesto of your
most secret home. Conjure up adventures. Journal your dreams. Entertain your next hypothesis or poem, your next invention, your next big idea. Make it out of the ordinary. Make it magical, make it plausible, make it yours. Chart the road back, the road
forward. Then draw a map, to remember by. Or what's a book for writing for?
