Thanks to everyone stopping by last week and a special thanks to those who left a comment. I really appreciate it.
I’m re-posting a story which I started a many years ago. It’s written in first POV, which has been a challenge to say the least. So, some of you may know the story already, but I’d appreciate constructive critique ☺
Enjoy ♥
Anyway, now I’m in this massive aeroplane en route to Germany. In all fairness, flying isn’t all what it’s cracked up to be. We’re not even half way and my bum’s sore, my head aches, and I’m bored out of my brains. Even the latest blockbuster on the small screen in front of me can’t hold my attention, and I’ve seen most of the TV series that often I can talk along with them. Even the excitement of sitting right next to the window feels silly now. As far as the eye can see are only sky or clouds. Initially breathtaking, now more on the boring and I don’t really wanna know what’s beneath me side of thoughts.
“Excuse me,” I say quietly to the nice looking lady next to me. “I’m sorry, but–”
I make a motion saying I need to get something from the overhead locker and she kindly moves her legs. Unbelievable, that there are people out there liking this experience. I’ve had enough already!
And before you go, please show the cover for

You’ve captured my feelings about trans-oceanic flights. Ugh. They’re to be endured, not enjoyed.
Hahaha, Ed. Comfort on planes hasn’t been perfected, yet, has it 🙂
according to my brother, the comfort level on planes has gotten far worse, particularly for people who are any bigger than the size of the average ten-year-old. I haven’t flown in years and rather doubt that I ever will again.
As a guy who a few inches over six feet and not as svelte as I used to be, I agree about plane comfort getting worse!
I agree … cheap is not necessarily better.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment ! 🙂
You are correct. Transatlantic flights are boring and they don’t seem to be getting any better.
LOL … any flights, even the short distance flights are uncomfortable.
Oh dear, and she’s got a long way still to go on this flight, I’m sure. You really made the character’s emotion clear in the snippet!
Thank you, Veronica. 🙂
Flying isn’t fun when it’s a long flight. I just want to reach my destination. 🙂 Great snippet.
Exactly! I’d like the “Scotty beam me up” option 😀
