A Stampede

Eating Kung Pao chicken, drinking Negra Modelo, writing "Rydell Tales (a novel)"

And when you read it, you're going to say to yourself, he can't have been eating Kung Pao chicken and drinking Negra Modelo while he wrote this--it is way, way too dark.

But it's true--you can live well and write dark.

Today's image is from a book I ran across in my research: "A Stampede" from: Historical and Biographical Record of the Cattle Industry (1895)

Whenever I see a painting like this, I think about the poor painter, standing there in front of his easel with a paint brush in his hand, thinking, "holy crap, I've got to finish this up quick !"
