The Pleasure of Writing in a Café (Part 2)
Posted on 19. Feb, 2008 by Joanna in Sardinia
Last week, Joanna blogged about the joys of writing in a bar or café. Like her, I love it, too.
I love watching the shouting out of orders and the quickness of the barmen as they respond. I love listening to the gurgling of the coffee machines which give rhythm to my writing. And I love how sitting in the bar at different times changes what I write.
If I’m in there at breakfast time, the tempo is fast-paced. In the afternoon, it’s more laidback as everyone steps down a gear and recovers from the post-lunch blowout. And in the evening, with a glass of red wine to hand, my writing takes on a more indulgent stance.
What does writing in a bar or cafè do for you?
