Goodreads asked Melissa L. Cook:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Melissa L. Cook "The Call of the Last Frontier: The True Story of a Woman's Twenty-Year Alaska Adventure" came from a thousand sticky notes, journal entries, emails, and newsletters I collected from 1995-2016. These notes documented events, oddities, and short stories I wanted to keep for what I knew would someday become a book.
