The Moose is Back!
 

After pasturing in Downeast Maine for the summer, an invigorated Moose is ready to take on the fall humor season!

This fall the Moose will be crisscrossing the state from Keene to Berlin, Exeter to Bedford and Conway. If you need a good laugh (or three) to help you cope with the shorter days of approaching winter, spend an hour with the Moose.

See the Moose's fall schedule here.

Says the Moose, "I'm looking forward to doing a residency on storytelling and writing for the students at the Charlotte Avenue School in Nashua."
 

The Moose is not one for sitting still (especially during Moose hunting season).

You can check out her latest blog at www.livefreeandeatpie.com.

She's also working hard to finish her latest opus, The New Hampshire Dictionary and Gazetteer for Islandport Press. Expect to see it in print in 2010.

Next up the Moose is co-authoring with Susan Bruce a book for Plaidswede Press on NH Town Meetings.

If you'd like to collaborate with the Moose in this historic undertaking, send Becky your town meeting stories, opinions or references.

Check out Plaidswede Publishing, publishers and purveyors of Could Have Been Worse, stories of "living yankee."

While you're at it, don't forget to visit www.nhbooksellers.com, where you can find books by "Rebecca Rule" (the Moose's nom de plume), and other NH writers.

 

It's Rutting Season!

Okay, it's not. But why not live it up anyway with a brand spanky new copy of Live Free and Eat Pie ?

Order yours today and you'll be prancing and pawing in no time!


Here's what the pubs say about it:

"Anyone who hopes to visit or has visited New Hampshire, and, heck, even anyone who LIVES there, will delight in this hilarious guide to the Granite State. Popular New Hampshire storyteller Rebecca Rule provides her interpretation of the state's history, culture, climate, attractions, vernacular, and more!"

Don't wait another moment to delight in this book. Visit Becky's Buy Stuff page toute suite (that's Canadian for what a sweet deal

on a sweet book!).

And make sure to check out the other great books at
Islandport Press!

If you're too cheap to buy the book new, here's an excerpt to tide you over until you can pick one up at a yard sale:

"Stickler

Pronounced stick-lah. A stick-lah won't give. A sticklah sticks to the exact rules. A sticklah can make your life miserable, for example, if you want to dump your dump at the dump, and your dumpsticker is expired. If the dumpmaster is a sticklah, he'll turn you away and grin while he's doing it. In these small towns we have a high percentage of sticklahs stickling it to their neighbors. Why? Because they can. And for some reason, they seem to think they should."
