Inspiration Behind the Way Over the Hill Series


By
M K Scott


People often ask why write about seniors in a nursing home solving cold cases. There are a couple of reasons. First is that seniors tend to get grouped together as old folks who do little more than gossip, play bingo, and watch reruns of Matlock. This is so untrue.
On one vacation excursion I was paired up with an eighty-five-year-old man who was a proficient snorkeler and much better than I was. I also met several other senior tourists who were very adventurous and full of life. My goal was to show that seniors might not be as fast as their younger counterparts, but their wits were still sharp. This is even more important since I have reached the senior status, too.
The second part of my inspiration is that I worked at a convalescent home for ten years. While there I met several people who inspired my characters, especially Lola and Gus. We also had residents sneaking out of the home and slipping back in, too. Most just wanted a walk around the nearby neighborhood.

My daily conversations with the residents planted a seed that took a couple decades to grow into the Way Over the Hill Series.
