Traveler’s Tales: Civil War Days

I’m finishing up a novella that takes place in 1867 Texas (An Inconvenient Gamble) and then I’m returning to my novel about Brigadier General John Hunt Morgan and his wife Mattie Ready.

Writing, Genealogy and Serendipity: Permelia

“I saw a photo once,” my 91-year-old grandmother said, “of three girls in an oval frame. They had red tinted hair and were very pretty.

Wearing the Cross

Is it unusual in your world to see a woman wearing a cross around her neck?
