Often in between writing scenes, I will walk the dog but in the summer Mortie gets too hot and must pause for a treat and water break. I now carry a book on the hike and here I am conveniently doing research for my latest project: Death on Track. The main character is a 14 year old adopted Chinese orphan and her best friend Jasmin is an Indian girl nervous her parents will discover her Canadian boyfriend.
Miss New India by Bharati Mukherjee gave me lots of insight but I also went out for an Indian buffet lunch with a new friend Beena. Of course I watched Bend It Like Beckham.
This tree is close to the library so I could get a new book once I'm finished if only they allowed dogs.
