I am in the process of researching topics for a second novel and would like to roughly base it on a unique Texas legend/folklore type tale. I have done some light internet searching but have not been too successful with this. I would prefer to get to a library for some hard source material, but sadly, I do not live in the State of Texas and do not believe the libraries here would offer much in this area.
Anyway, most of these legends are shared by word of mouth anyway, so I thought I'd ask you to share some of your favorite stories you have been told. They don't necessarily have to be true or based on fact (i.e. the Mexicans burying their cannons along the Lavaca River during the Texas Revolution), and I know of some legends already, like La Lechuza. I find them all interesting, and figured someone out there has a cool story to share.
Thanks!
