When I left Dallas, Texas for college at 17, I knew I wanted to be a writer, in fact was always writing. Among the images I carried with me was one of airplanes taking off from Love Field, back when Love Field was the main airport. My mother used to take my sister and me to the observation deck where we’d stand in the dark, watching the lights out on the runway as the planes lifted; we followed the lights blinking in the sky until we couldn’t see them any more.
