The Marauders

Post by PaleoRob »

It is real. It is in print. Whether it is worth your time is up to you. All the misspellings, layout, grammatical issues should be ironed out, so it is live. I here it is, for what it is worth!

It should also be able to be purchased via Amazon and other retailers sometime soon...

Hey, way to go! Starting a book is the easy part (I have two going) but finishing one is worthy of celebration, and publishing it even more so! Awesome!

Thanks all. I've been posting bits and pieces of it here on HAZ for a little while, so I am glad to see it finished and actually in print. Hip hip hooray!

I hope all of you who read it not only enjoy it, but also give me some honest critiques and feedback. It would be greatly appreciated. You all have been very helpful and supportive in terms of me writing this story (and getting out there for "background" in the backcountry). I can't really express my gratitude properly, but I wanted to let y'all know how awesome you are. :wrt:

My post-Xmas "present" arrived in the mail today. So when is the author hosting that book signing "gig" over beverages of choice??? :wrt: :)

PS. Are the cover images from our March 2009 Grand Gulch trek?

Indeed they are Randy! Does yours have any funny spacing issues on the tops of pages? I've heard some, but not all, do.
Book signing will be at any trailhead I show up at. :) Unless we actually want to set something up. I'd be game for that too.

My book was just shipped today so I'll let you know about the spacing issues when I get it. A signing :wrt: at a trailhead would be so appropros.
