The author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Ken Kesey, wrote an even chuddier masterpiece: Sometimes a Great Notion. It's about a family of stubbornly-independent chud loggers. The entire town hates them because they don't use union labor and they're destroying the environment.
Ken Kesey was a famous hippie and acidhead (an MKULTRA experiment introduced him to LSD !glowies). Hippies are stereotyped as libs, which is mostly true. Still, the heart of the counterculture of the 1960s was extreme individualism, and that extreme individualism has a chud side too. There's a reason they elected Reagan.

Stephanie Meyer doesn't even count as a bad PNW author. She settled on Washington as a setting by looking up places with lots of rainy days. Pretty sure she lives in the southwest.
