Caitlin Moran had literally no friends in 1990, and so had plenty of time to write her first novel, The Chronicles of Narmo, at the age of fifteen. At sixteen she joined music weekly, Melody Maker, and at eighteen briefly presented the pop show 'Naked City' on Channel 4. Following this precocious start she then put in eighteen solid years as a columnist on The Times – both as a TV critic and also in the most-read part of the paper, the satirical celebrity column 'Celebrity Watch' – winning the British Press Awards' Columnist of The Year award in 2010 and Critic and Interviewer of the Year in 2011.

The eldest of eight children, home-educated in a council house in Wolverhampton, Caitlin read lots of books about feminism – mainly in an attempt to be able to prove to her brother, Eddie, that she was scientifically better than him. Caitlin isn't really her name. She was christened 'Catherine'. But she saw 'Caitlin' in a Jilly Cooper novel when she was 13 and thought it looked exciting. That's why she pronounces it incorrectly: 'Catlin'. It causes trouble for everyone.(from http://www.caitlinmoran.co.uk/index.p...)

Krakauer, who'd always been drawn to the risk and adventure of mountain climbing, was now at the top of Mt.  Everest.  A bank of clouds was gathering not too far away on the horizon, but Krakauer saw nothing that suggested a storm was bearing down.  He looked down at the people huddled below on the mountain's flanks and felt a sense of sheer terror overcome him.  His instincts were telling him to get off the mountain immediately, but he fought down his fear and continued upward.  Disaster struck soon after; a fierce storm with hurricane-force winds drove everyone--including Krakauer--off the summit.  The bank of clouds turned out to be a "rogue storm" in which it's nearly impossible for mountaineers to predict when it will move away from their position on top of a mountain.  Krakauer and many others died in this tragic event that also left countless more--including Krakauer--in guilt-ridden disarray.
