Dancing Unabashedly to Mariachi Music

A Woman's Year-Long Journey into Living True

Beschreibung

Exhausted from thirty years of running a business, layers of self-doubt, and failed online dating attempts, Gail Grycel embarks on a year of travel from New England to Hawaii and back. Armed with backpacking gear and two pairs of dancing shoes, she boarded a Greyhound bus in September of 2014, and sets out to see what else life offers. Travel with Gail through the landscapes and cultures of the United States, exploring oddities like the Cow Thieves and Outlaws Reunion, the Mummified Barbie Dolls, and the Biker Bar Identity Crisis. Encounter people like Coyote Joe, the Nomadic Llama Guru, TEA Man, and the Denver Seducer. While integrating humor, adventure, and self-reflection, Gail invites the reader to walk the labyrinth of possible lives with her, and find out what changes evolve.

Autor

Gail Grycel travels solo, camping out of her pick-up truck, with several pairs of dancing shoes and hiking boots. Her writing responds to the details of place. She is inspired by the spaces and experiences of her travels. Her poetry has been included in Vermont's Poem City, The Weekly Avocet, Writers Cafe Magazine, The Medley, S/Tick Magazine, The Poet, and Burning House Press. When not on the road two-step honkytonk dancing in Texas, zydeco dancing in Louisiana, or hiking in the mountain ranges across the United States, she resides in her self-built straw bale home in southern Vermont.
