Melissa Cutler’s Cozy Reading Corner
- By: Jessica Faust | Date: Feb 20 2015
My favorite place to read is also my favorite place to work
longhand on my books: the beach. And not just any beach. I’m lucky enough to
call San Diego, California, my home, with nearly a hundred miles of coastline
to choose from for a cozy reading place. What makes a great reading beach for
me? No crowds, easy parking, and a daily buffet of surfers to watch. Ahem.

Anyhow, I found just such a spot at the literal southwest
corner of the USA—the southernmost beach in San Diego, where I can look to my
left and see details down to the individual windows in the charming Mexican
beach resort across the Tijuana river mouth, it’s so close. I like to chill at
this beach at least once a week, so I always keep a beach chair in the trunk of
my car, along with a beach bag filled with sunscreen, a notepad, pens, and a
water bottle. Toss in my Kindle and I’m ready to go!

How lucky to have the beach so close. I'm not sure I'd get any writing done, though, as I'd probably drift off – the real version of relaxation music!
Although I'm further up the coast than you (Los Angeles South Bay). I'm right there with you as first choice spot to read or write…and may I add walk! I love that you write long hand. I do as well. There's something about feeling that pen on paper.
Thanks for sharing.
