I won an ARC of "Owls of the Eastern Ice," but never got it. Was it published?

Hi Ann-Marie, sorry to hear that. I am not/was not in charge of sending those out--my publisher was. Please send me your contact info via personal message (not this public forum) and I will share your inquiry with the publisher.

Hello! Is it hard to leave the owls after so much work to find and tag them? Do you follow the families of the original owls (how long do they live)? Or are they not as monogamous (besides the one) as they seem in the book? I'm worried that I would become too attached in research and fret over them, or I would obsessively make wild family trees. Thank you, I loved the book (and that you narrated it)!

I 1st went to Madagascar for ecology, got distracted by language, & then ended up going back to pursue my PhD by writing a grammar of a language there. On my last 2 trips there, I didn't even see a single lemur! You discuss some interesting linguistic issues here or there in Owls of the Eastern Ice—were you ever in danger of switching tracks as well? Were there any other linguistic anecdotes that didn't make the cut?
