  In her search to find healing and meaning in midlife, Glenda Goodrich undertakes a series of wilderness quests into the backcountry of Oregon, Washington, and California to discover what the natural world has to teach her about life, death, happiness, spirituality, and forgiveness. 
  This book chronicles the sacred ceremonies that connected Goodrich to the land, wove her into nature’s web, and transformed her from a woman who worked to please others into a woman who forged her own path. It is a brilliant collection of adventures—the touch of coyote fur, a snake’s kiss, a ceremonial blood offering—and a profound reflection on the healing and restorative power of nature. 
  "Glenda Goodrich’s mesmerizing memoir of her over twenty years of solo wilderness quests is an exhilarating and tender read. In moving and penetrating prose, she faces her fears, grief, regrets, even transgressions with the trees, rocks and creatures as her companions. Supported by the wisdom of the Medicine Wheel traditions and able guides, she stunningly recreates her sacred ceremonies as she more fully embraces her artist, wise woman self." 
  —Wendy Judith Cutler, co-author of Writing Alone Together: Journalling in a Circle of Women for Creativity, Compassion and Connection and co-editor of Finding Home Within: Sanctuary and Solace During Tumultuous Times 
  About the Author

  The Last Kiss

  A modern day love story of two people finding themselves unequally yoked in marriage in more ways than one, who daily face the challenges imposed by the high intensity environment of a Naval Aviator trying to balance God, country and family and not necessarily in that order. 
  THE LAST KISS is a gripping real-life memoir of a US Navy Carrier Pilot flying dangerous missions against Russian submarines in the North Atlantic during The Cold War. It was a very perilous trade, as he puts it in his own words in the second page of his book: 
  "I spent most of my career landing very fast jets on very tiny decks in the middle of the night in the middle of very big oceans" 
  "His book is packed with operational details and piercing insights into the United States Navy and its role in the defense of America, but it's also a poignant personal account of life and loss, God and Man, and the ultimate price we all pay for true love. It's so good I wish I'd written it."
