Strawberry Festival Love


by Jennifer Anne F. Messing from the June 3, 2024 issue

Tagline: While at her vendor booth at the annual fair, Isabelle finally opens her heart to the possibility of romance--and before she knows it, love walks by.

Observations: "Strawberry Festival Love" gave me another idea for thinking up story plots. This story is set at a strawberry festival--a quintessential summer event. When you want to write a seasonal story, look at your town's event calendar, or even some other town's event calendar, for settings. 

For instance, in Los Angeles, I found:

  • Summer Sports Brewfest
  • Beachside Summer Brunch
  • Summer Cocktail Mixology Class
  • Summer Wine Fest
  • Summer Love Speed Dating Event
  • Summer Culinary Creations
  • Summertime Dessert and Tea Pairing Experience
  • The Culinary Dude's Summer Cooking Camp: Harry Potter Inspired Recipes - Um, I want to go to this, but it's for kids! 
  • Summer of love Charcuterie Class
  • Vegan BBQ Party
Getting any ideas from this list of events? I am! So, what are you waiting for? Get writing!
