Goodreads asked Martin Shone:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Martin Shone The book I'm working on at the moment came about at my local cafe. I generally order a coffee, read some of whatever book I'm reading at the moment and then simply relax into myself I guess and just wait and see what happens. It just so happened several little unusual and rather surreal thoughts came to me so I jotted them down and now I have a little over 6,000 words. I don't think I was planning on writing something bigger than my usual poetry but these short phrases seemed to belong to each other and so after bringing them together and letting my imagination run with it, I now have the beginning of a "something". I think it's looking like it could be a rather philosophical, spiritual, elemental love story.
