Finally, it's here! After a year of hard work, lots of help and support from friends, my kayaking memoir is now available in paperback and ebook formats. I think I've talked about it enough that everyone knows what it's all about, but in case you missed it, A Paddler's Journey is filled with the interesting adventures and misadventures on my path from a newbie kayaker on the ocean in Southern California to the multi-discipline ACA Instructor Trainer and expedition paddler I am today. On the one hand, it's a collection of fun stories. On the other, it shows how I learned and grew as a person through paddling, the same way most of us evolve as we participate in any activity that is so all-consuming and challenging. If you appreciate my blog I'm sure you'll like the book. In fact, I'm sure people who have never paddled a boat in their life will still understand what I went through and relate to the experiences. It even has some pretty pictures if you like that kind of thing :)

Post it to your local paddling club. Pass along your book when you're done reading. And most importantly: leave me a review and let me know what you thought:

Most of my adult life has been spent teaching and managing one thing or another. Two decades ago I discovered kayaking and after spending a few years enjoying the sport I decided to try to make it my career. I have taught kayaking, guided trips, managed kayak schools and paddled all over the world. I have since settle down with my wife to raise my daughter on the Mendocino Coast - one of the most beautiful kayaking locations I've found.
PaddleBC documents my seven week road trip to British Columbia, including a solo circumnavigation of Moresby Island (Queen Charlottes).
