I think the way I captured the Vietnam era was in Sam's flashbacks to the war and the music Poppy loved. I saw it in the simple small town feel I tried to portray and the mannerisms of the characters.

Sounds strange that the 60's are in the fifty-years-ago category now.<br />How do you feel you've been able to capture the spirit of a Vietnam vet and a gypsy? Do you know people who you've modeled the characters after? You've chosen very rich personalities and I bet the story is fabulous!Dawn Kundahttp://www.dawnkunda.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5083633325209012024.post-2150502248627423182012-01-29T19:58:14.387-05:002012-01-29T19:58:14.387-05:00Aw Thanks Tina!
