Guest Post:
I came up with the idea of setting our novellas in a quaint ski village and then we brainstormed on having only one road in and out providing a way for an avalanche to truly cut the ski resort town off from the rest of the world for a time. Lynette came up with the best idea of having a geomagnetic storm to knock all SAT phones out. As you can see, we really wanted to isolate our characters ☺ The joy of being a suspense writer.
The fictional town we created, Silver Pines, Colorado was based off of real-life Durango Ski resort. Back in the day when I skied there it was called Purgatory. I lived in New Mexico for a number of years, and my friends and I would head to the adorable and rustic landscape of Durango, Colorado. We’d shop, eat and ski.
The ski resort is amazing and exactly how I’d picture a Swiss ski resort with its beautiful lodge and the slopes lit up at night and the crunch of snow under foot. It’s not icy like east coast skiing. Rather, it’s beautiful, fine powder. It’s mesmerizing, especially at night.
Lynette did a fantastic job of making Silver Pines come to life with pictures of the lodge, even down to the lodge restaurant, along with wonderful descriptions so we could picture it perfectly in our minds. Unfortunately, for my crew, they get cut off from the main lodge by the avalanche on the other side of the mountain face and all they had for shelter was the old, dilapidated lodge that hadn’t been bulldozed down yet. I didn’t find pictures of inspiration for it; I could just view it in my mind so well. It was such a fun mystery to write—very Agatha Christie in style. She’s my second favorite writer and I wanted to pay her homage by writing a story where all the suspects are trapped, and the killer is among them and I got to do that in Whiteout.
As for us warm-weather girls, writing a story in the cold was particularly fun for both of us. And, Lynette’s favorite season is winter, so she always prefers to write about the cold over the heat. I write more based on season, so the weather is whatever season the story falls in, and location, of course. I hope you enjoy our snowy adventures in Whiteout.
