I just picked the winner of Heather Dixon's ENTWINED using Random.org.
And the winner is:
Alexandra Shostak!
Congratulations Alexandra! I'll email you soon.
We just got back from the Oregon Coast. It was AMAZING. We go every couple years, and it is my favorite vacation ever. I love everything about the Coast. The cool weather, the amazing landscape, the ocean. But mostly I love this:
We talked. We played. We rested. We made memories. And now we're refreshed and ready to get back to real life.
And revising.
How do you recharge?

Beautiful picture! Getting away for a week like that is one of the ways I recharge. Quiet times help me too. Writing...painting...quality time with the ones I love.

Love it! I'd love to get to that part of the world one day. We do the same kind of thing, just in a different location :)
Love the Oregon coast! Just looking at this photo recharges me. We've always headed to the Pacific Coast for R&R. But since we've moved, it's no longer feasible. I've yet to find my recharge sanctuary.
It looks beautiful! Someday I'll go there. I've always wanted to drive up the coast. :) I'm glad you had a good time!
YAY!!! Thank you! (I actually just e-mailed you; I asked Karen for your e-mail.)
Entwined is INCREDIBLE! I loved it! Heather Dixon is a doll as well! Congratulations to Alexandra!
Great picture! I lived in Portland for a year, and my biggest regret is that I never made it out to the coast.
To be honest, one of the biggest sources of relaxation in my life is my writing. It's my dream job, and when I have time off from my day job (working in a scorching warehouse), I just chill out in front of my computer with a mug of coffee while I work on my books.
We live in BC and I have the opposite wish, wanting to be somewhere warm. I can't believe its almost the end of July and I'm wearing my jeans!
Such a sweet pic. So glad you had a great time!
Oh, that picture is amazing! The water looks so refreshing. I'm so glad you got to do that!
I really would love a morning to myself to sip coffee and read. Or write. Maybe in a fancy pants hotel with satiny sheets. And chocolate croissants. Hmm.
What a beautiful picture! I love the Oregon coast--so pretty!
I recharge by hanging out with family or friends, reading, or maybe even going on a real vacation! Going to coffee with my husband or a friend is a great mini-charge. :)
I've never been to the Oregon Coast, but it sounds and seems really amazing. I'm so glad it's recharging for you. :)
Congratulations Alexandra! Nat, glad that you are recharged. Beautiful pictures.I take a walk into the woods when I need to recharge a little.
Love the picture. Believe it not, writing recharges me. But it has to be fiction. I guess slipping into my own fantasy world must be the secret. ;)
I'm so looking forward to recharging by going on a family holiday. We're hoping to make it to the coast as well.
Oh, that's beautiful! It sounds like such a wonderful time.
So glad you had a great trip!
My fantasy worlds are a mixture of my real life experiences and my imagination.
