Oasis By The Sea

Cape May at sunset

This is my oasis by the sea....a place to commune with nature....to smell the sticky salt air and feel inspiration by the beach.  For me, and for many writers....water does it.  I prefer salt water because I summered at the New Jersey Shore.  While I will enjoy the scents and scenes around me, I am there to complete a novel.  Rising before dawn, exercise begins my day followed by a healthy fruit smoothy. Hours of writing follow in a beautiful cabana by the sea. I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such beauty and inspired by nature to write a story with a Native American twist. Two weeks ago as I was planning this getaway, a real eagle feather fell from the sky and onto my feet.  I am hoping that means Grandmother earth approves of the project!.
