I was doing research last week for a story I'm trying to work on that's very loosely based on my Grandparents' story. Well, they met and fell in love in Pea Ridge, AR, and having never been up that way to my knowledge, I wanted to know more about it. I also needed to know more about what all a county fair might offer in 1946. See? Writing isn't all just putting words on a page. Sometimes, I get to learn things, too! Anyway, as I was finding all these neat pictures of 1940s fairs, I remembered that quite a few authors keep Pinterest boards for their books. It helps them to mark things they've researched, pin pictures of people who look a bit like what they pictured their characters to look like, and even visualize the settings better. So, I've started a few boards (here) and thought I'd share with you all in case you want to see a peek into what I was thinking as I wrote or am writing/editing some of my stories. I've added several pictures and even a few yummy-looking smoothie recipes to the board for An Unexpected Legacy, so be sure to check it out before slipping into the other two boards I have on there for works-in-progress. I hope you enjoy this, and feel free to share other pins you think I might want to add!

This is a place for me to tell you about what I'm writing, talk about the process or where some of my ideas came from, or even have other authors come in and talk about their books.
