Hideouts: Great Getaways for Seducing the Muse You know what happens when you try to write at home. The
kids start fighting, the laundry begs to be flipped, the pasta starts boiling
over on the stove... Distractions abound. Responsibilities nag. For many writers, the ideal place to write is anywhere
other than home. Literary agent Andrea Brown provides a solution: Take a
“working” vacation. In this guide, Andrea profiles about 600 hotels, inns, bed
and breakfasts, lighthouses, and other getaway locations that she thinks are
perfect for writers seeking inspiration. Each entry is short, providing a brief
description of the location and amenities, and a price range. Most entries also
have a website address where you can visit to see more details. It’s the scenery that most often determines what makes a
place ripe for inspiration, so here you’ll find descriptions of lake and
mountain views, beautiful gardens, and palm trees. Want to get in the mood to write that period romance? Maybe
what you seek is a Gothic Victorian mansion to set those fingers flying across
the keyboard. Want to get in the mind of your fisherman protagonist?
