Editorial Reviews

"Tonight I read your whole book. My early sense was right but understated. I did laugh, alot. I shook my head quite often at the fixes you both found yourself in and , more surprisingly, chose to share with us in all the unvarnished honesty. And I cried. No I wept like a baby at the enfolding of your story in all the ferocious magnitude of what you experienced.

Your book is an important book at an important time in history, when all the predictable props of our life have been snatched from us. In it is the story of one individual human being, later joined in commitment with the now famous “Hot Ronnie” who chose to lean into the unexpected and the potentially life destroying realities of life. In writing this book you have served all of us. And, and I don’t say this often, you have already modelized well for the world what it means to Dream big. Go anywhere. Do anything! - Roger Laing
