In her first book, Kissed by A Fox: And Other Stories of Friendship in Nature, Priscilla Stuckey meditates on her encounters with the natural world. Originally trained in religous studies and feminist theory, Stuckey gathered material for her book from first-hand experiences with land conservation and observation in her home states of California, Arizona, and Colorado.

Just recently released in August, the book has already recieved high praise. Publisher's Weekly was among the first to review Kissed by A Fox: "Through a tenderly woven collection of essays that blend personal reflections with spirituality, philosophy, animal behaviorism, evolution, geology and ecology, first-time author Stuckey explores the great rift between the living, breathing world and the modern culture bent on developing and destroying it...The narratives are well paced, using flashbacks wisely, and the language lyrical, possessing a poet’s cleverness of rhythm."
