Trails and Rails: November 2012
http://trailsrails.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 10, 2012. Like a fungus, this series keeps mushrooming. I mentioned in my last post that I was going to develop a worksheet for my characters in Nebraska Sunrise. So much, in fact, that as I developed this worksheet, I realized it called for even another book to get it all in. Ah, the curse of research and finding out some more neat historical incidences and facts. What will the title be? Still working on it. But, I know who the leading characters will be and what they will be doing.

http://trailsrails.blogspot.com/2014/05/serendipity-indiana-and-kansas.html
Thursday, May 1, 2014. Serendipity- The Indiana and Kansas Connection. I am partial to making connections that help make my novels believable if not exactly historically correct. Serendipity connections, such as the one I experienced when writing Aurora Redress. See my post under my Aurora Rescue blog: http:/ aurorarescue.blogspot.com/2010/02/i-love-it-when-things-come-together.html. Add joy to my writing experience. Yes, in Abilene Gamble. That is connection number one. It was in retaliation to this inc...

http://trailsrails.blogspot.com/2014/04/explosion-of-ss-sultana-from-back-story.html
Wednesday, April 9, 2014. Explosion of the S.S. Sultana - From Back Story to Prologue. I have often planned a certain scene. In anticipation, I spent quite a bit of time researching the explosion on the S.S. Sultana that took place on 27 April 1865. SS Sultana on April 26, 1865. This steamboat was built in 1863 for the lower Mississippi River cotton trade. During the American Civil War, it was often commissioned by the Union Army to carry troops. Artist rendition of the Cahaba Prison Camp. At approximate...

Trails and Rails: Cowboy Conversation and Clothing
http://trailsrails.blogspot.com/2014/05/cowboy-conversation-and-clothing.html
Wednesday, May 21, 2014. Cowboy Conversation and Clothing. It was almost like Christmas the other day when I received four packages in the mail. Even though the Postal Service regards them as flats, not parcels, I'm sure my rural carrier would have loved to have seen these show up during the mail count. I recently ordered four books for research. One is Cowboy Slang. The other book on western speech patterns, Cowboy Lingo. It is organized in a manner that pleases my brain more. 2 The pants of choice for ...
