Pilot, staying out at Diamond Tail Ranch south of Santa Fe while his girlfriend has a part in a TV western, has been struggling to write an article on the Penitentes, a religious order known for its Holy Week reenactments of Christ’s last day on earth, while he also prepares for the upcoming Easter procession to Chimayó.

CREATE WRITE NOW https://www.createwritenow.com/ Linda Guest Post on Mari McCarthy's Writing Blog ABOUT THE BOOK
Through delicious and dark, scintillating and salacious true tales of planned and accidental intersections with the exotic and quixotic, Durham pits her real self against her ideal self in a lifelong journey as serpentine as the Mobius strip her father made for her more than seven decades ago. On stage and off, Durham creates and is created by story. Raven spirit tattoos on both shoulders, wanderlust in her eyes, she danced in ceremony with tribal Kachin women, chanted "Free Gaza" from aboard the seized Audacity of Hope ship, was cured by a Voodoo priest in a Haitian cemetery, slogged through the tempestuous lands' end at Tierra del Fuego, and breathlessly summitted Kilimanjaro. Everywhere this around-the-world traveler wandered, she chased the ghosts of her own ignorance and arrogance, culled clarity from confusion, and dug herself out from the crushing numbness of defeat. Durham unabashedly pulls back the curtain on loves lost and found and on a life lived richly and openly amid fair fields and foreign wars, in places sacred and profane. Her incurable optimism gives inspiration and voice to the struggles of women worldwide, empowers those of us who feel derailed by a world out of control, and frees us to open the door to love. ABOUT THE AUTHOR
For more than three decades, Durham promoted New Mexico-based artists as the hands-on owner of contemporary art galleries in Santa Fe and New York. In 2012, the New Mexico Museum of Art acquired her extensive gallery archives. A prolific writer and public speaker, she has been a guest lecturer or workshop presenter at Brigham Young University, the University of Wisconsin, Ohio Wesleyan University, Yale University, the Sundance Institute, the College of Santa Fe, Santa Fe Community College, and the New Mexico Museum of Art. For her seventieth birthday, Durham circumnavigated the world in seventy days, meeting indigenous women, educators, artists, entrepreneurs, and peace activists, and planting "Seeds of Peace" in gardens, schoolyards, and parks in South Africa, Lesotho, Madagascar, Thailand, Myanmar, and Hawaii. She, her partner, two cats, a dog, four chickens, and a pond full of fish live in an old adobe house in rural New Mexico. Durham's two children are both professional chefs. Her granddaughter is a young scholar.
Still Moving: A Memoir by Linda Durham Keywords: Non-Fiction, Memoir, Art, Adventure, Self-Discovery

From International travel and adventure, love lost and found, and time as an NY Playboy Bunny, the only constant guiding force in her life is the Mobius Strip. Shown on the cover of the book, the Mobius strip combines a beginning and an end, leaving only a continuous path.

MIND CANDY MYSTERIES BLOG www.mindcandymisteries.com Review by Elaine Faber in California, USA NOVEMBER 24 11. MEMORY WRITER'S NETWORK https://memorywritersnetwork.com/ Review by Jerry Waxler, memoir expert in Pennsylvania, USA ABOUT THE BOOK
Strawberry Roan is one woman's search for meaning in a world of competition, isolation and passion. Her family is loving and supportive but her father's pressures become her own.
She becomes a horsewoman, a breeder and raiser of horses, a kind of equine princess who must always win competitively against girls somehow better equipped than she. In time her life pursuits lead her towards doctoring and she becomes a neurologist with a driving ambition to help people who are on the edge. Sadly, the pressures here are complex and so is her unraveling marriage. She wins only by rugged individualism and the absolute will to win. It's a triumphant story as well as a dramatic one, laced with lovely descriptions of ranch life and the backwoods beauty of northern New Mexico. ABOUT THE AUTHOR
