Blue Heaven

I always have.

I love the book Train Dreams, and then a book that really made me think I could write something was Blue Heaven by CJ Box-

Mm-hmm

... which is set in the Panhandle as well.

And, um, so that's kinda where it started, was tho- those two works, specifically Blue Heaven.

And I just have just felt drawn to it, and, um, as I was wr- as I was coming up with the idea, I'm like, "Ah, I don't wanna do, like, an actual county up there."

Mm-hmm.

It's really kinetic, fast-paced, and I enjoyed it a lot.
