Howdy!
Seems appropriate I post some cowboys as I am hip deep in writing a historical/western at the moment.
I found something I started over two years ago, had 2800 words done. So I started picking away at it and am now at 9700 words.
Tentative title is 'Drew's Gamble'.
I know, I should be editing, I should have started the Timeless Heart sequel, but you go where the muse takes you. This won't be a long story I am thinking. I will see where it takes me.
I am having a blast doing the research (my hero is an ex-Civil War Union soldier) and now a gambler/drifter.
Rugged, honorable individualists who are so blatantly masculine it appeals across eras and genders.
They can bring large horses and other steers to heel, they have tamed a wild frontier.
There is just something so appealing about a man striding across a dusty field in skin tight wranglers, cowboy boots and a huge honking belt buckle, shirt open to his waist carrying a saddle.
It's his world and he is comfortable in it. He owns it. He thrives in it. They have a code they live by. It's in their blood. Doesn't matter what era. Cowboys rule.
Have a good week~

Don't know how you do it but you always find the most delicious looking pics of sexy men, lol!
ReplyDeleteBeing a horse lover myself I have a weakness for men who love horses too. Most I've seen can be really pig-headed and enjoy the power a little too much of being able to control such a large animal. I'm sure there are some softies out there though who appreciate the horse for what it is.
Oh god, that was a bit of a ramble, lol! ;)
Oh wow, great shots, and a western, is it from what I think it is?
ReplyDeleteI love cowboys too!

Jen, I LOVE looking for hunky shots, lol~
ReplyDeleteI so agree with you, give me a rugged man who treats horses (and other animals) with respect. THAT is sexy, don't care for the shitkicker type guys.
Jaundyce, yep it is. Another blog I will be making private I think.
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked the shots!
