Ken Heitz was in a blue period of his life and began a process of spontaneously writing, for himself alone. He was working out what was important in life: the big questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt some point he shared his writings with Linda Runyon, and the rest was history. Ken and Linda were married and began a great adventure together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey started their wild experience in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York in the early 1970s with the ideas \u0026amp; ideals at the core of this new book fixed firmly in their minds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou may be wondering- \"But if it's new, how could it be a part of their history?\" True, the poems were written many years ago, and Ken \u0026amp; Linda always wanted to publish it. They even published excerpts of it in the form of 2 smaller works during the homestead years. But only now has the book they dreamed of come into being.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wild Food","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47009480016112,"sku":"9780936699189","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780936699189_p0.jpg?v=1763867864","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780936699189","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
