20 Days of Backstory: Day 8

Hi, friends,

Only one more day until MAYDAY is published!

In the spirit of Wayne Kovok, the fact-loving protagonist of my new novel, MAYDAY, a story Publishers Weekly gave a starred review and calls "a compelling exploration of life after disaster." 

BACKSTORY FACT 8

I first thought of writing about a plane crash after watching an episode of AIR DISASTERS in which debris trailed out of a doomed plane, landing miles from the actual crash site. 

However, I'm not a nervous flier. I learned from Wayne Kovok's research that 80% of all crashes are survivable.

Also, I like this graphic about how planes fly.
