Just last blog I talked about getting ideas. It happened yesterday--and was a little like a bolt from the blue. I was getting ready to go to an outdoor concert and had NPR on the radio. Garrison Keeler had a guest musician on who was doing a lovely old song that sounded like it came from the Civil War era. A line in the song was about the widows and sweethearts left behind, and blam! Just like that I got an idea for not one book, but a series.
What happened to all those women who loved men who didn’t come home from war?
What if they formed a social club that evolved into a sisterhood and what if some of them decided or were forced by circumstances to become mail order brides?
Ta da--more books.
