HEELS – Mountains or Beach?
Cathy Perkins:
“Both! I live in the mountains
(yeah, I know, tough gig, someone has to do itJ) so the beach is a favorite
getaway. I love looking out the window
every morning at a scene most people consider a vacation destination but mostly
I love the quiet that comes with living in the mountains – and the wonderful ‘neighbors’
who look out for each other.”

“Absolutely the beach! Whether it’s
a beautiful blue California beach, or a white sand Gulf beach, or tropical
island beach, we’re there.”

Paffi Flood:
“Definitely mountains. I love the
idea of the beach. I dream about it all
through winter, especially after I see ads for resorts, but after I arrive at a
beach, within minutes, I’m done with the blaring sun and the intruding sand.”
Debra H. Goldstein: “Beach!!
Actually, it is the water.
Swirling waves bring out my creativity and I don’t if
it’s raining or the sun is out, the key for me is the movement of the water.”

Jennae M. Phillippe: “I used to live in Los Angeles so I am going
to go ahead and say: both! Because you
can go from the mountains to the beach in a single drive. It’s a very lovely drive.”

Linda Rodriguez:
“I’m totally a mountains person.
I enjoy the beach, but mountains make me so happy I feel as if I could
fly, and I’m always a little homesick for them.
Probably because I come from a long line of conquered mountain and hill
people – Cherokee, Scots Highland, and Irish.

of sand between their toes?”

“Neither. Give me a city location
and I’m there. If I had to choose
between the two, it would be mountains as long as I’m being driven up it.”

Juliana Aragon Fatula: “Beach.
Dillon Beach, California. Two
summers ago, I met my best friend there for two weeks and we workshopped on the
beach her novel and my memoirs. It was a
learning experience and I realized how much I love writing when I can read or
write all day or night without interruptions from family/day to day chores. It was a magical visionary time of enlightenment
with someone I love and that loves writing, too.”

Kay Kendall:
“I must choose the beach since being hemmed in by mountains makes me
uncomfortable, claustrophobic. That’s
because I grew up on the wide open spaces of Texas and Kansas. When I’m at the beach, it’s not for
sunbathing. That’s boring, and I don’t
like to be hot. I like to walk along a
beach and look for shells. The beaches
of Oregon are fantastic. South Carolina
too.”

Sierra and can see the nearby mountains from my office window. My Tempe Crabtree series is set in a mountain
town similar to where I am.”
