Inspirations, thoughts by Minnesota author and flight attendant
While flying, I heard many stories, both from crew members and passengers, with the understood intent that I might incorporate them into books that I’m writing. However, now I am looking for specific subject matter. How has the pandemic changed your life in ways other than reported on the media. Personal experiences, both heartwarming or frightening that might evolve into a mystery. Just the masks alone give lots of possibilities of mysteries, but what have you experienced? How about in flight? Did you notice anything that made you uncomfortable or suspicious? Do you think masks can conceal something suspicious? Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you.
We left a moderate winter in Minnesota for a brief respite in northern Florida. Having grown up in Florida, I knew it could be chilly this time of year. However, even 50’s would offer a nice change. We landed to a balmy 67 degrees and for the first week, the temperatures bounced around in the sixties and on two days the 70’s. Couldn’t ask for more than that. However, I also brought a writing project to work on, which I pretty much ignored the first week. The gods of weather have deemed it necessary to get me back on track, thus plummeting the temps into the low forties with high winds and surf. Time to get to work. But it was nice while it lasted.
Not sure of the age of my granddaughter the last time we went to the beach on the Gulf of Mexico but we’re leaving soon for another visit. This time she is one year away from college. I wonder if she’ll still feed the sea gulls and make sand castles.
