Different Flags by Eugenia Renskoff

Different Flags, a book by Eugenia Renskoff, tells the story of 26-year-old Ani. Ani leaves her comfortable but stifling life in San Francisco to travel to Argentina to comfort her widowed Aunt Esther. Once back in her native country, Ani must face her unexpected feelings of love for Padre Luis, her aunt's young and handsome parish priest. Different Flags is a study of Ani's inner conflict.

Distractions

I'm in need of distractions, plenty of them. One of my favorites is Lucy. I love watching the I Love Lucy show on TVLand. It's one of the few things that make me laugh. Then there's The Nanny and Upstairs, Downstairs. I love stories that tell about real people in real situations, stories that show people with virtues and faults. I enjoy writing about feelings and why a certain character does what she does. The past has its attraction as well. Why did somrbody in the 30s, 40s or another decade do this or that? Why has someone changed for the better or for the worse? What makes me care about their fate? How is she like me or not like me at all?
