Yes, Shannon, that would be great.  I write occasional essays/book reviews on my blog "All Things Literary. All Things Natural."  http://pagelambert.blogspot.com/ So make sure you send me a note when North of Hope comes out.  You might enjoy my memoir too, In Search of Kinship: Modern Pioneering on the Western Landscape. It was a Rocky Mountain best-seller when it came out (hardcover 1996, softcover 2001). http://www.pagelambert.com/books.html.  Congratulations again on your contract!

thank you Page- I sent him a message and said you'd told me to connect. I appreciate it; he looks like an amazing man and I look forward to reading his book and hopefully meeting all of you one day!

Gary's a great guy - the whole literary community here in the lower West mourned his loss.  Feel free to send him a note and tell him Page said hello.

Wow Page- thank you so much. I will order it!

Shannon, North of Hope reminds me of my friend, author Gary Furguson.  Here's a graph from his bio:

Gary’s newest book, just completed and currently in production, is called The Carry Home. The work is a celebration of the outdoor life shared between Ferguson and his late wife Jane, who died tragically in a canoeing accident in northern Ontario in the spring of 2005...

Here's a link:  http://www.wildwords.net/about.html.   You might want to check out his memoir.  I sense some kindred spirits.

Shannon, I just checked out the Amazon link and love your bio, love the topic, love the natural and intelligent tone of the narrative.  Looking forward to checking out your FB author page.

Hi ladies. Today is a pretty exciting day: I've just signed a contract for my memoir, North of Hope which comes out in March 2013 (Zondervan) about a river trip in the Arctic tracing a tragic journey from the year before. I hope you'll join me on the journey- it's been a very long time in coming and a lot of work ahead! Preorders are available here:
