Up, Up, and Away!

EL PASO BY MARTY ROBBINS–LEARNING HISTORY THROUGH SONGS #4 (AND A GIVEAWAY!) by Cheryl Pierson

Continuing my series on “learning history through songs” I just knew I had to include this “series” of songs by one of my favorite songwriters/balladeers, the incomparable Marty Robbins. This isn’t specific history, but these songs give us an idea of how life was for this particular gunfighter, then for his love, Feleena, and then ... Read more

Buffalo Bill, Annie Oakley, and How the West Was Won (And a Giveaway!) by HEBBY ROMAN

          When my husband and I went to the National Cowgirl Museum in Fort Worth, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I thought I’d find pictures and stories about working cowgirls, rodeo queens, and maybe some famous cowgirl actresses, like Dale Evans. What I didn’t expect was an extensive display of ... Read more

Feisty Lady Ranchers…my specialty?

My most recent release is, A Man with a Past. When I’ve talked about that book, I’ve mostly focused on the hero, Falcon Hunt. The hero in this one is extra fun in two ways. One, to me, the big one, Amnesia. Very interesting and tricky to write. Two, he’s a Tennessee Mountain Man in ... Read more

Texas Time Machine

I love stepping back in time. Through the pages of a book, the visual delight of a period movie or television series, looking at old pictures, digging into research, or even working on a craft that has been practiced for hundreds of years. There is something about the past that is just so romantic and ... Read more
