Chris- I always look forward to reading your Substack and was so touched and surprised today when you shined a light on 1666: A Novel. KeNa- thank you so much. ☀️🪶📚 BLS was so inspiring- looking forward to reading your other work!
Thanks for the tip about The Pulp. I don't live in Missoula anymore, so didn't know it existed. When I go back for visits, though, I still feel the loss of The Independent. And, thanks for the reminder about your anthology contributions! I think my husband would really like the trail essays! (Also, do not stop sharing your good news. We need good news so badly, and it is wonderful to be able to celebrate for/with you!)
I love Chandra Brown’s description of you as a “pollinator.” What a wonderful thing to be in the world! (Also, I love The Pulp - they’ve put out a lot of great long-form pieces, including this one.)
Here is Ray Radigan's website that has all the Trail of the Cedars haiku illustrations: https://www.rayradigan.com/other-work/cedars ... should be a book!
Craig, I love this. Thank you for sharing!
Been eye'ing Water Bodies since Laura featured it on IG. Thanks for all the good book recommendations, especially Becoming Little Shell.
Be well, Chris. Good to read you again.
Thank you, Marie. Water Bodies is definitely worth your time!

You are quite welcome, Lora. It's a wonderful book and I've been meaning to mention it for months.

I feel the loss of the Independent too. It has been a huge blow to the community.
I'm delighted to learn that you have not one, but two other books I can look forward to reading after BLS.

Well now I have a ton of things to add to my reading and listening lists! Yay 😃 and thank you

Ordered your second book for my quiet Dad's 71st birthday - thank you! He will love it.
Thank you, I hope he does!
I love seeing all the news – that's why I'm here!
