📚✨ I finally got two of the most thoughtful book recommendations from my brilliant mentor, Sandeep Ravindran — and I couldn’t be more excited!
These are not just books; they’re gateways to deeper insight, sharper storytelling, and a richer understanding of the world.
I’m so ready to absorb, reflect, and grow through every page.
Learning never stops — and with the right guidance, it becomes even more meaningful.
Thank you, Sandeep, for always lighting the way. 🙏💡 @Open_Notebook

Weather stories are science stories, as we’re reminded at #SciWri24, where local reporters from Blue Ridge Public Radio, Helen Chickering and @stopitkatie discuss covering Hurricane Helene as local journalists also living through the catastrophe.
