There is
happening a lot in my books. Not always I have the knowledge about it. So I
have to discover. I like it to ask my computer (on the internet of course) and
I get the most beautiful and interesting answers. Sometimes I can use it.
However, most of the time the book change the story and find an easier
solution, than the one from the internet. In the end I don’t need al that
information. ‘But it keeps me away from doing naughty things’, my mother would
have said.
The story
needed a singer which sang Fado-music. But not a Portuguese, but a Spanish one.
I found Maria
del Mar Bonet. Listen by yourself how the music moves you.

Not only I
discovered her, but I found also Al Alba van Luis Eduardo Aute

Just as the women in
my book, I am a music fanatic. So for me it is an extra bonus when I discover
together with my main characters so lovely music.
I search
for a scanner that saves a scan file in the memory of the scanner (I needed it
for the plot) I couldn’t find it. The story founds a much more easy solution.
Google
shows me which countries don’t have extradition adjournments and which have.
Wikipedia points me to the most beautiful nature in that country’s. This
information I could use.
There is
one just little inconvenience…. It looks so nice I want to go there by myself. My next book will be
situated in South America, more specific in Argentina. A good opportunity to
visit it, don’t you think so?
