- Hi Steph Simple Living Climb
Steph,
I want to thank you and let you know how I used your book. I discovered it at ‘Back of Beyond’ on my first trip to Moab. After reading it, I gave it to a young woman whom I met through the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. She’s a gifted young poet and budding climber. I gave her your book so she can see how the two seemingly disparate activates of writing and climbing can be melded. I’m hoping that this talented young writer and climber can find her own confidence through a turbulent childhood by reading the experiences found in your book.
Thanks for taking the effort to write your story.

Dear Jean, I really appreciate your sharing this with me, and am glad to think H.I. might be of some use to your Little Sister. Thank you for mentoring her and giving your time to such a worthy program.
Best to you both,
xxSteph
