20 Days of Backstory: Day 13

Hi, friends,

In the spirit of Wayne Kovok, the fact-loving protagonist of my new novel, MAYDAY, I'm sharing facts about the story. 

BACKSTORY FACT 13

I watched this neighborhood kid sprint to the bus every morning for a year. Each day, he barely made it on time. I rooted for him. I thought, he must be doing this on purpose. It seemed like this was something Wayne Kovok would do, too. It gave me the idea to include running as a theme in MAYDAY. 

Check out my interview in BOOKPAGE magazine here for more backstory.
