Our Montana roots stir with excitement because John Messick will be in Missoula soon as a Montana Book Festival author and presenter. If you’re in the area, track him down! Catch him on stage Sept. 7th... and either way, read his book COMPASS LINES: Journeys Toward Home

Thanks, Bill!

Speaking of astrophysics & stale beer, @Salon published a COMPASS LINES excerpt from our new title by John Messick. Check out the adaptation of the longer essay about polar research at the South Pole—a good book preview, and a break from geopolitics.

Ahhhh the joys of publishing from a remote cabin in Alaska. East coast person taking my printer payment for over the phone at 10 in the morning signs off with "Have a great evening!" Which come to think of it might have even felt premature even if I was on EST.

There's no welcome home like an icefall's welcome, no mood like a glacier’s own.

Pretty sure I saw more migrating snow buntings on the McCarthy to Anchorage drive than people altogether in town, here, since. Love when I get to see them mob through. I mostly think of them as predominantly white, but they camouflage pretty well perched in poplar.

I mean if you're going to break up during breakup, it's allowed that a volcano in Russia explodes and grinds things ahalt for emphasis but also perspective.

There’s no orange as vivid as kiddy sled orange in flat snow light. Glowingest thing for miles.

Grateful to see (online; no hard copy here in McCarthy!) a positive review of COMPASS LINES in today's @adndotcom written by former Alaska State Writer Laureate Nancy Lord, author of Fishcamp and Rock, Water, Wild, and many more. https://t.co/kxG98Lov0T
