BIGGER 'N TEXAS is a roller coaster ride through the lives of
people who make the horse the center of their existence. These
cowboys, cowgirls, grooms, riders, trainers, horse owners and
horselovers are so passionate they defer to this bewitching beast
the most important of life's decisions--where they live and work,
when they eat and sleep, who they marry, even whether or not they
raise a family. It is as if they realize that the horse can read
their mind better than they can read that of the horse--which after
you've owned horses long enough you begin to believe and is likely
true.
Getting to know these whacky people will be both entertaining
and educational. In SWEET MENTAL REVENGE, for example, Merle, the
red-headed barrel racer, will explain why she was in jail before
she became a barmaid, why her ex-husband Kyle wandered off into the
coastal hay patch and how her new live-in got the nickname Daddy
Rabbit. Her new best friend Reba, who has a secret, had rather talk
about why their boss wants to show every new female employe what is
in the trunk of his Mercedes.
Readers of the title story will end up knowing why handsome
Guy's famous Christmas party was BIGGER N TEXAS than in Oklahoma,
why it was the whores almost didn't get there because of the
firemen, and why RUBY FROM ALABAMA was as critical to both
locations as the biscuits. But for pure entertainment there is
BULL, CHAPPED and THE BRUNETTE ROSE, all boy/girl adventures in the
grand world of the rustic and rural, and readers can just dance
their way home to FIDDLE MUSIC.
None of this is true, of course, only true to life and from the
mind of an author as passionate about horses and goofy in his life
as the characters he created.
