Climbing Urban Sky
Eleanor finishes college and finds herself on an airplane heading to Washington DC. With no money and no job, she explores how to grow roots in new soil. Part fictional travel guide to Washington DC and other locations in the US and overseas, part coming of age story, the narrator gives us a front seat to her adventure—the real, the imagined, and where the two blend together.
The book is available in both paperback and electronic formats (links to the right). The electronic format sold in the Apple iBookstore includes an audio author’s welcome, behind-the-scenes information similar to a director's audio narrative on a DVD, and links to online song samples that pair with selected scenes.
