Rain in Arizona
It's raining outside, after a hundred plus degree afternoon. It isn't supposed to rain. June is southern Arizona's driest month. San Juan's Day (June 24th) is the average return of the annual monsoon, a hundred miles south of here in Hermosillo, Sonora. Ours usually hits us in the park on the 4th of July. With the hundred degrees morning and early afternoon and the rain, mostly light now, I've gotten a lot done indoors on the keyboard. I've updated the new book. Cowboy Dictionary is the name. It's in preorder on Amazon. It is a compilation of the cowboy vernacular terms my characters use and plus Hawaiian pidgin, and some Spanish. Plus character descriptions. It's set up to accompany the series as word has it that some found it entertaining in and of itself. A short book, very short at ten or eleven pages. And I added another three thousand pages to book ten. The rain is reminding me to add atmosphere. Which is what I started doing this morning, then I got sidetracked by plot. Such is life. I follow the muse more than the outline. Don't really have an outline yet at 24,500 word in. And, I recommend you follow your muse. It's fun. And don't forget to read, it opens new worlds
