My latest novel is set in Dawson, New Mexico. Recently, they received a grant to do some work on the Dawson cemetery. Dawson was the site of two mining disasters. One in 1913 (the event my novel centers around) and one in 1923. It is heartwarming to see this place being renovated by good-hearted dedicated people. Dawsonites were always a close community and they hold reunions every other year even though the town was closed back in 1950.
