First Draft

He opens with seriously, now, I'm kind of busy, and explains that he is not here to be anybody's best friend; he is here to get inspired. Twenty-four chapters in which that softens without ever quite becoming warm. There is a boat, a mountaintop, a lodge, and a beachside cabin on a private stretch of sand he will fly you out to. The first time he cooks for you, you assume it must be someone else.
