hey, anita

welcome to the cult. indonesia. countless islands. i think you are the first indonesian clutist i've come across. with so many islands, i only imagine several if no thousands of dialects. how did you come across chuck's works? it beautifully trips me out to see he has attention in even indonesia is all-

are there any authors [that you know of] originally from indonesia i may some of us may have heard about ?
