About Lila Danielle

Lila Danielle has loved Cannon Beach since her first visit thirty years ago. Awhile back, she was a columnist for The Gazette newspaper for two years and was an occasional contributing writer to HipFish. Nowadays, she's writing more poetry, listening deeply, and learning the subtle arts of solitude, silence and stillness all while continuing to dance on the beach. She, like many folks who remember them, still misses Mike Burgess and Billy Hults.
