Inspirations, thoughts by Minnesota author and flight attendant
I fell in love with books when I was a very little girl. In the summer, I would walk three blocks to the library. Only the walk limited the number of books I checked out, usually five. Even as I read stories, I thought of stories: About family members, neighbors, friends, teachers, and mostly, people I observed from afar. The latter became critical later in life as a newspaper reporter. But much, much later in life when I became a flight attendant, it gave me the basis for so many stories. Passengers offer countless details that work great in character development, and sometimes in their stories themselves. Some of their thoughts/ideas require more research and reading. It’s the same adventure I experienced as a girl, except reversed, instead of reading, I’m doing the writing. What an adventure.

I’m working on a book in my flight attendant mystery series about the pandemic. I’m looking for stories that could be turned into instances of intrigue or chaos. Those accepted into the storyline will receive a notation in the book. In fact, I can make you a character (first name only) My premise is that the mask disguises malevolent intentions. After all, the whole face is much easier to read than just the eyes. How has this affected you? Were you ever uncomfortable when being watched by a mask-wearer. Please send me your thoughts for a book that should be out before the end of the year.
