Raven's Roads
Living an interesting life: the travels and musings
of motorcycling author Linda R. Moore

Huge thanks to BookCrosser and author Linda Raven Moore (aka WhiteRaven13). You may remember that she did a solo ride by motorcycle from the West Coast of the U.S. to the BookCrossing Convention in Forth Worth, Texas in 2005 and documented the journey in a memoir called A Little Twist of Texas. When the book came out, she said she’d donate a portion of each book cost back to BookCrossing. Not too long ago, Linda made a most generous donation to the site and requested that the wings from the donation, if possible, be split so that a number of nonwinged active members can fly. The Support Team will be dispensing these wings over the next month. If you find yourself flying and don’t know why, don’t ask, because we’ll never tell. But it’s possible that your benefactor just might be a certain bookreading motorcyclist. P.S. Linda is planning on being at the BookCrossing Convention in Charleston this April, where she’ll speak a little on her other passion, Markeroni. She’s promised to bring copies of her books as well.

Just a tiny correction for accuracy: I did a Book Crossing promotion and it’s those profits, not all profits, that were given to Book Crossing. The site’s owners were very kind in letting me promote the book there.

Pre-orders have started! Be among the first to get your copy of “A Little Twist of Texas!”

The book is at the printer!

Interior is being typeset. I will attend the Los Angeles Harley-Davidson women’s motorcycle expo on May 7, 2006. Books should be available by then.

Cover design is finalized. Final run-through is in progress.

Final draft of the book is in the proof-of-the-pudding stage (the proof of the pudding is in the reading). Publication date is set for April 2005 at the 2006 North American Book Crossing convention in Toronto.

Draft #3 of the book is completed. Pre-readers get copies to review, comment on and proof.
