Lynn Hazen, Ellen Hopkins, Kristin Howell, and our host, Amy Laughlin.
There are things you need when writing a novel in Cabo. Here are some of them:
A view to ignore.
--------------------------------------------------------
A sarong - because you don't want to waste time getting dressed
when there are chapters to revise.
----------------------------------------------------

Caffeine and sugar in liquid and solid form, because
proper nutrition is important to growing authors.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Adolfo the butler, to keep guacomole bowl full
and the margarita pitcher clean (for later use.)
------------------------------------------------------------

Four motivated and talented friends to set a good example.
(clockwise from bottom left: Lynn, Hazen, Ellen Hopkins, Amy Laughlin
and Kristin Howell ignoring the view, sacrificing for their art.)
---------------------------------------------
Not pictured: a vivid imagination, a knowledge of the craft,
a willingness to be critiqued,
sunscreen.
