A Day in the Life of a Writer: Research
My heroine, Diana, is a painter. She got in trouble as a teen for painting on abandoned buildings (and once she did a county building in protest against them closing the county library)–and that is the extent of my knowledge of graffiti. I know that it’s usually illegal, that there are fines and or jail time, and I know they use spray paint. So I’ve been doing some research, and I’m posting it here for several reasons:
- others may be doing research along the same lines
- the information is interesting
- perhaps this will spark someone else’s muse
- maybe someone in the know will share his/her knowledge
