This is part 2 with Johanna Garton, our last episode focused on Writing your Adventure Story and unpacking Johanna’s own family adventure story, Awakening East. Today’s episode will focus on her second book, Edge of the Map released in April 2020. Edge of the Map is a fascinating story about one of the most accomplished female mountaineers of our time, Christine Boskoff, who still holds the record for the number of 8,000 foot peak summits. It’s not only an adventure story, but also a thriller, love story, and memoir into the life of one tenaciously humble woman. A little fun fact, Edge of the Map influenced the name and branding for this podcast, which we'll discuss later in the episode.
JOHANNA GARTON is a mother, author, and cross country coach who has played many roles throughout her life. Several years of living and working in Asia, including time in China with her husband, son, and daughter, inspired her to write her first book, Awakening East. She and her family live in Denver.
