OMG, I love my brother-in-law! I rarely talk about my personal life here but I've been the caregiver for my mother-in-law for several years. Then this last year my mother decided to get into the act by falling a bit more than she should. The last fall cost her 16 stitches and a stay in the hospital. Between the two of them I have been a very busy girl.
My B-I-L saw what I was going through and decided I needed a vacation so he sent me on vacation! To Aruba! He paid my way to join my sister and her friends for about a week. It gave me a chance to relax and not worry about anything.
We spent our days at the beach and talking about so many things. Mostly the goofy things everyone had said or done over the years. I started to get an idea. We went out to eat and more stories were told. I heard crazy comments, and found unique ways at looking at things and that idea started to bloom.
By the time we were on our way back home and I eavesdropped on a few conversations I had a full blown story. This one will be way off what I normally write. No romance, no futuristic or SF, and no erotic. This one will be a humor book. A family going on vacation and all these crazy things will happen to them. Kind of like the Vacation movies, but my spin will be these are real things that happened to real people. My characters will be based off of a blend of people I know too. I've already started it.
I wonder if my brother-in-law can take it off on his taxes since I'm using what I saw and heard as research for this book.

the person who looks like he's floating on air is standing
on a board that is attached to the jetski that is sending
water through a tube that lifts him up in the air.
