Book Deal?

Two most common questions I field as a post-AT hiker:
"So are you going to write a book about your experience?"
"Have you read Bill Bryson's book"

The later is the most common question proceeding the following two words; Appalachian Trail. It appears that most people who can read, have read the Bill Bryson book "Walk in the Woods". I read this book 10 years prior to my thru-hike, and in parts the days following my hike. I recall enjoying the book and the banter 10 years ago, but in the second read I was unamused with Bryson's whimsical charm. Perhaps motivated by spite, the Bryson story was dull and predictable after doing what he only briefly attempted. And so I am going to one-up the man and write a better story about a thru-hike told by a thru-hiker.

It is a love story, but not a romantic comedy. It is a fish story about hikers. It is a tall tale told by a midget. It will come with a side of ranch or blue cheese and celery at request.

I have already begun writing this conglomeration of stories. Anyone know a publisher?
