Author Julia Park Tracey's ancestors and their stories have given her a trail to follow from New York and New England to the deep south and the Pacific Coast. She is the author or editor of six books and has written for Redbook, HuffPost, The Sun, Salon, and Babble.
Aven Shore lives in rural Eastern Canada in an off-grid tiny house she built on her large woodlot. Her lifelong (and voracious) appetite for reading and learning is constantly fueled by reading for a living, and she has narrated over 200 audiobooks.
