CRLC Saddle Up Saloon Interview

3/6/2021

When I received an email asking if I would be interested in participating in an 'online interview', I thought why not. I am already participating on their website's writing prompts, and I write a column for them as well. So, really, this was a no-brainer.

What I don't think I saw coming, but should have realized, was that I was going to be interviewed by two fictional characters. That's right, not one, but two characters that have a handler capable of making them come to life.

The following is the link to the interview with Kid and Pal, the managers of the CRLC Saddle Up Saloon.

The Story Behind the Cover

A special place with special people and a special moment.

Seven years ago, the full February moon rising over a ridge became an inspirational gift I will not forget. It was warm enough to sit on the deck that night. Not spring warm, but winter warm for our part of the country. We donned on winter jackets and cotton-wool gloves. A clear night sky, cozy blankets draped over our legs, and a hot beverage finished the required amenities for the wait.

And then it started. As the first hazy light glowed to silhouette the trees on the ridge our cameras came out from the inside warmth of our coats to be put into action. No words needed to be uttered. No pushing and shoving were endured. Silent, frosty breathing and the continual click, click, click, presided over the magic.

I did not know, on this night of taking copious amounts of pictures of the moon, that I had taken a photo that would not only grace the cover of one of my books, but it would also be instrumental in its title. Each time I look at the book’s cover I am reminded of that special place, with special people, and a special moment.

Moon Rising: An Eclectic Collection of Works by Ann Edall-Robson is available on our website in both paperback and hardcover.

Products with the gorgeous picture of the moon rising over the ridge can be purchased from DAKATAMA Country.

Old School or E-Reader

I am old school when it comes to books. I like the feel of something tangible in my hand, the swoosh of paper as you turn a page and the smell, oh the smell of the ink melding with the paper. I could go on and on about being able to go to the book shelf to pick one of my favourites volumes to read. It's like having my own private library.

Let's face it, we are not all like me and I have to say, I am open to downloading and reading ebooks. It's a convenience I have come to appreciate when I can't decide which book I want to take on a trip and end up taking several just in case. The weight factor of several paper published books makes for an additional piece of luggage and the ultimate need to still decide which one will be read.

Enter the e-book phenom into my travelling life. I am able to take along ALL of my books if I want and have only to deal with under two pounds of weight and no extra luggage.

Of course, there is a need for some sort of electricity to keep the iPad happy, thus me happy. But in the case of not knowing if I will have a place to charge my 'reader', and yes, that happens, I carry small charging cells that fit easily into my iPad case.

I am not abandoning my books on the shelf. That is not going to happen. I am merely embracing modern technology.

How do you read your book, old school or e-reader?
