Inspiration for fiction comes in many forms. A few years ago, I spent a lot of time on the Santa Fe Trail. I haven't hiked or run it much lately, but I recently enjoyed a morning walk with my daughter and step-daughter. This trail provided the outdoors setting for a scene in book one in my rock shop mystery series, Stone Cold Dead. In my novel, it is January, and pretty bleak. This summer, we've had more rain than usual. The trail is green and lush. Lots of folks were hiking, running, and biking. A women's running club shared the trail with us, along with a gentleman in possession of four large poodles. (Click on play to see the slideshow and read the photo captions.)
