Into the West – The Real Story of Truckee’s Trail

Celia Hayes | February 24, 2010

Hardly anyone has ever heard of this particular party of men, women and children. They crossed the continent in 1844, and blazed a trail in the wilderness, being the first to bring wagons all the way to California. They walked nearly two thousand miles, across plain and desert, finally hauling their wagons up a sheer [...]

Comancheria – Texas Rangers

Celia Hayes | February 2, 2010

In his one-volume history of Texas “Lone Star”, T.R.. Fehrenbach cites one particular reason for Texas having such a distinctive culture relative to the other states. There is a distinctly different “feel” to living here; of all the places in the States where I have lived or visited; only Utah and Hawaii came even close [...]

Quirky Historical Fiction March 10, 2010

Does the story have to be deadly serious just because it's historical fiction? I don't think so, and can name three books off the top of my head that loosely fall into this category.1. The Adventures Of Alianore Audley by Brian Wainwright;2. A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain; and3. Sir Apropos of Nothing by Peter DavidW […]

Word of Mouth April 12, 2009

Over and over, solo and chorus, I have been assured that word of mouth advertising is the very best, the ultimate platinum-standard when it comes to getting a product or a service out there; I even heard this, years before I even considered writing books. The CPA who does my taxes was referred to me by another client of his who coincidentally was a friend of […]

Sunday Afternoon at the Old German Free School March 21, 2009

So, ages ago, Karen M. who manages the speaker’s schedule for the German Texan Heritage Society emailed me to ask if I would like to come and do a talk about the history of the Adelsverein in Texas, and how I went about writing three historical novels based on those events – which are dramatic to the nth degree and which hardly anyone outside of Texas ha […]

Name On the Marquee in Lights! March 5, 2009

Perhaps not in lights, but it was definitely my name on the marquee in front of the Butt-Holdsworth Memorial Library in Kerrville last Saturday. Blondie took a picture, so we have the evidence. It seems that they like to do author talks on Saturday afternoons, and it would appear that Phillippa Gregory or Diana Galbadon already had busy schedules – so the […]

Wild West Monday February 9, 2009

So a number of fans of Westerns are trying to raise interest in that particular genre, by mobilizing other fans, around the world to go into their local library or bookstore and ask for Westerns - any western, new, traditional or somewhere in between. More here, thanks to Gary Dobbs of "The Tainted Archive".Gary says, in part:"At the moment we […]

Weekly Update - 21 Jan January 21, 2009

OK, so it's the middle of the week, and I didn't do an update last week... I had one of the most awful colds/allergic reactions/flu imaginable, and my heart was seriously into nothing more energetic than crawling out of bed for a fresh cup of herb tea and some ibuprofin now and again. But I am feeling better now, so without farther ado -IAG member […]

Imagination and Will January 13, 2009

Sometime around the middle of the time my daughter and I lived in Athens, the Greek television network broadcast the whole series of Jewel in the Crown, and like public broadcasting in many places— strictly rationing their available funds— they did as they usually did with many worthy imported programs. Which is to say, not dubbed into Greek— which was […]
