WHAT I’M DOING NOW
Busily editing a collection of essays like this one, for future self-publication. Also re-writing a novel (fourth draft) for future queries. It’s about the newspaper biz, trauma and other fun stuff.
My column, Hometown, is carried by the Ferndale Enterprise. Here’s a fan favorite. I write a lot about growing up country, getting citified then sinking your roots back in where you’re from. But mostly I write about joy.
My column about rural healthcare, 50 Miles from the Freeway, is carried on Redheaded Blackbelt and KMUD. Here’s a piece about the absolute cluster of dental healthcare. It’s a syndicated column, so if you’re interested in carrying it, use my contact page and get in touch!
I am also a contributor to KEET-TV, our local PBS station. Here’s one of my interviews. I’m a civics nerd who likes to get things done, and as such have launched a podcast with my creative collaborator James Faulk called What’s Wrong with Humboldt (And How to Fix It). You can find the first episode here. In 2022 I produced a documentary about suicide prevention and mental healthcare in Humboldt County as part of a grant awarded to KEET-TV from PBS Twin Cities. Here’s a link to that!
