This website was set up to accompany my recently published, "Becoming Ravenbear, An Alaska Magical Memoir."

 

During that part of my life I had no idea that I would be writing a memoir 50 years later. Therefore there are few photos for Days 1 & 2. Then starting on Day 3 our building in Colorado and then our first wilderness trip in Alaska will hopefully enhance the experience of your reading. Days 4-9 are all documenting our life in Alaska.

 

My life has pulled me in many directions but the strongest for sure was my life in the Alaskan wilderness. It was there that I found my spiritual connection to the land and to the ravens and my introduction to the Alaskan grizzly bears. And now it has led me to share my life in Alaska with all of you at last.

 

I am still working on understanding who I am, who I was, and what to make of my life nearing 80 years. Writing my memoir was a process of opening my memories and my understanding of my motivations, my faults, my passions... and more. How could I share the very intimate details of my life, how could I allow myself to be so vulnerable for all the world to see?

 

I hope you enjoy joining my voyage in life and please share with me your experience by writing me through the contact form on this website.
