Susan Gregersen

Susan Gregersen and her husband live in an off-grid, solar-powered cabin surrounded by forest and mountains in NW Montana. They produce nearly all of our food, through gardening, hunting, fishing, foraging, and the occasional domestic meat animals raised some years.

Her first book was “The Long Ride Home”, which was written on a cross-country bicycle trip in 2010. “It’s sort of a ‘what if’ about how I would have gotten home if the world had fallen apart while I was so far from home on a bicycle.”

Most of her books have started with real people in mind. There have only been a couple exceptions to that, where the characters and their situation at the beginning of the book came solely from her imagination. It makes her bristle when a reviewer says “Oh, there can’t be anyone like that”, because there really is! Everyone has different frames of reference to draw from but shouldn’t discount what other people know. After all, they say truth is stranger than fiction!

Her story is told in the book “The Long Ride Home”.

They make their way to the rally point at the family homestead, arriving by car, truck, horse, motorcycle, bicycle, or on foot. When plans went askew, they relied on back-up plans or quick thinking to keep moving toward their goal: Home!
