Hope is a Thing with Feathers
It is generally agreed upon, in most academic circles, that the last Scottish wolf was eradicated in the 1700. The beasts, while a scourge on livestock, were said to be hunted and bestowed as gifts to Kings. Highlighting their symbolic power. However, several eyewitness accounts still persist today. Many are written off as sightings of hunting dogs. Most experts in 1835 would agree that the wolf is a relic of Caledonian history.

About
Petra Reeves spends her days in the Texas heat dreaming of Scottish moorlands. She received her MFA in fine art photography from Rochester Institute of Technology in 2011 which led her to teaching at several of the local universities in Austin. Currently she is back in school studying psychology, while she writes, paints, and photographs to maintain her sanity.
Why did she write a book? A trip she was volen-told to attend for her mother’s 70th birthday to Scotland turned out to be a cosmic call to arms. While riding a tour bus through the Highlands, the initial inspiration hit for her debut novel: HOPE IS A THING WITH FEATHERS. Armed with the lack of inhibition one tends to get when cresting 40, and a few saint like beta readers, she finished the 1st draft in less than a year. Proving to her childhood self that she could finish writing a book and that sometimes dreams you make when you are small can be carried into adulthood. Y
ou can usually find her fighting her tuxedo cat, Toby, for supremacy of her keyboard and desk chair.
