Anne and CC, the famous Spoon Sisters who track their antique hunting adventures in their popular blog, are flying home from a recent shopping spree in Paris. Anne finds herself seated next to a nervous gentleman, who becomes even more agitated during some major air turbulence and both he and Anne drop their bags in the aisle. However, that pales in comparison when the man is later found dead in the airplane's lavatory. Because the plane is full, the crew is forced to place the man's body back in his seat next to Anne.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 117
Book Description
It was suggested to the author of this book of short stories that he relate his education accomplishments and high points in his life as it related to writing. Universities, and there were several, creative writing as far as those were available to an old student. He served four years active and four years reserve in the military. At fifty six he decided to graduate from high school. He had already been to three universities, learning Spanish, Russian, and Latin, and had taken a first course in creative writing. It was the first, of several rather unsteady steps, to a possible life of writing short stories. After graduating from high school he proceeded to move from one university creative writing course to another until he reached the university of N.C. at Chapel Hill with a professor, a well known writer, who taught advanced creative writing . It was required that a demonstration of writing ability needed to be offered before a student would be accepted to his class. MR. MacKay was accepted and presented many stories to the professor who was well taken with the creative talent demonstrated. It was the most positive acceptance by a professional writer and a compliment beyond any this writer had ever received. This is book #5 of a list of 8. Maybe he could be an accepted writer; that remains to be seen. Readers will make that judgment.
