Terrific story about your grandmother too. My grandfather recently ded at 103 and I was able to collect a lot of stories from him and my parents that I will incorporate into a reall cool thriller after I finish the Breakthrough trilogy. Its amazing how much inspiration one can draw from parents and grandparents, especally those who had lived through two World Wars and the Great Depresson.

Your grandmother sounds like a very special person. How sad the the special ones so often die much too soon. The things you could have talked about and found out had you been able to be with her when you were an adult. Your book sounds like it will be a good window into history for women. Good luck with it.

My grandfather was a cowboy in Texas during the latter 1800s but he died before I was born. Wish I'd had a chance to hear some of his stories. Good luck on the rest of your tour.
