Ep_59; Work and Fun on Location
Description
Gail Carriger and Piper J. Drake discuss how they plan and enjoy both work and fun on location.
But first! Where have Gail & Piper been?
Murder cabin, on a lake. Mystery dog. Heat resistant frogs in the hot tub, and some not so heat resistant. Much writing was accomplished - either in communal area, or privately when dictating.
Then to a nice hotel in Spokane. Bull dog regular at the hotel bar.
Piper's Plans:
- Changing up the writing retreat dynamic with 2 pro authors and 2 pre-published authors. Going for the fun and productive balance.
- Writing. High priority!
- Lots of walking: on the beach or through a park, or along Waikiki streets
- Food! Looking for those fusion dishes
- Speech patterns and local dialects
Gail's Plans:
- Writing. Priority #1
- Swimming, either in the ocean or in the pool
- High hopes for health benefits in water: ocean, pool, hot tub
- Food! Fresh fruit, in particular
- Increased creativity and productivity
Gadgets:
- Piper's swimwear: tankini designed for curvy girls - sized by bra size with underwire support, also a sarong/towel
- Gail's swimwear: tankini or one piece, retro design. Travels with goggles & swim cap. Waffle towel.
- Both: Sunscreen!
