Joanne is busy washing my gear and getting it ready for transfer to my sailboat, the Silent Mistress. This new adventure is on a restored 25 foot 1977 O'day sailboat. I suppose it's reasonable to ask what my sailboat has in common with my E-bike. Well, the answer is they are both propelled by lithium batteries, and as such, reflect my desire to push Americans toward a future that is better, for the climate, and for the health of our economy. The Silent Mistress, my name for the old gal, comes from the second story in Volume One of North of Nelson.
I know Joanne accepts my desire for another adventure, and truly she has been a stolid support throughout this ride. I have always been a rolling stone at heart, and God blessed me with her help and support, and regardless of what my future might bring I thank her from the bottom of my heart. My E-bike journey is now complete, and I hope to have it published as soon as possible. But, as you may or may not know, publishing a book is a difficult and tedious task, fraught with many problems and issues. The end of the E-bike journey was full of many difficult surprises which I will bring to light in the book. Let's just say it didn't end the way I had hoped, but in some ways, despite the hardships, I am grateful for how it concluded. In the meantime, if you wish to read more about my adventures and insights on a variety of topics, I would suggest you check out my website, www.writerinthewilderness.com or my Substack Platform at hiltonemoore.substack.com . I currently have two books in print, North of Nelson Volume One, North of Nelson Volume Two, and a short story in the UP Reader, Volume Eight. All of these books can be purchased through Amazon, Kindle, or on audiobook. Frankly, if you buy them directly from silvermountainpress.com , that will provide more funds for the Silent Mistress. Thanks so much for your support. Perhaps you will hear from me soon, once I'm aboard. Hilton
