![]() Or at least read, in this wide-ranging, upbeat collection of personal and revealing essays. Wherever she lives, for Stobie every day is an adventure (or misadventure), and every escapade a great excuse for a joke and even a life lesson or two.Įarly readers love this book Dave Lieber of the Dallas Morning News described it as an extraordinarily fun read, and Stu Bykofsky of the Philadelphia Daily News says Mary Stobie is a gal you want to meet. “Settled,” though, as readers will discover, isn’t quite what Mary Stobie is about. Unexpected encounters with Hollywood A-listers like Warren Beatty and Clint Eastwood colored those years before she settled into the writing and family life back on the Colorado range. Stobie’s surprising experiences include stints as a young rodeo champion and a Hollywood ingénue. ![]() Rocky Mountain writer Stobie terms her work a “patchwork memoir.” Patchwork it is-breezy and wide-ranging personal essays and columns deftly woven into a funny and cohesive fabric. An unusual and just plain joyful memoir that is part Annie Oakley, part Erma Bombeck and 100% original. ![]()
