Praise for
Have I Got a Story for You
“If stories are the threads that bind us together as a community, Hope’s book is the cleat hitch that holds us fast to this place and to each other.”
– Jeff Rennicke, author of Jewels on the Water: Lake Superior’s Apostle Islands and contributor to Backpacker, Reader’s Digest, and National Geographic Traveler
“With luminous prose, a huge heart, and a journalist’s eye for detail, McLeod has created a treasure chest filled with people whose ordinary appearance masks extraordinary lives.”
– William Kent Krueger, New York Times bestselling author of the Cork O’Connor series
“Every community needs a storyteller, and in her new collection of stories from the Bayfield peninsula Hope McLeod grasps the role and runs with it. These are tales of artists and eccentrics, of life, love and occasional loss, of people searching for beauty or, in one case, for UFOs, characters all who together make up the rich fabric of life along the edge of Lake Superior.”
– Dennis McCann, former columnist for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and author of This Superior Place: Stories of Bayfield and the Apostle Islands
