One sunny day in October I headed to Southside, an area near the hospital district and south of downtown Fort Worth, and took some pictures to use for descriptions in the cozy mystery novel I am working on. I found a charming house to use. While driving around and getting a feel for the neighborhood where my story takes place, I was surprised to find a street named Travis which is the name of my main character's husband and another street named Oleander which is the name of her dog. Seems to be confirmation that I was meant to write the book don't you think?
