2023 Reading Challenge: The Great Transition by Nick Fuller Googins
I got a preprint of this wonderful novel from the author, and I finally got around to reading it. I enjoyed the book immensely: it is hopeful and imaginative and will appeal to anyone interested in alternative visions of our climate crisis future. I was especially a fan of the co-housing developments that appear throughout.

Photos from the Half King Reading Series at the Salmagundi Club in New York
On Tuesday night, I had a wonderful time with Glenn Raucher and the Half King Reading Series. I did this event at the old Half King back in November 2018, and according to Glenn, I am the first author to have done this event in both places. We had a great crowd that asked fantastic questions. Thanks to Shannon Hennessey for organizing it all!

Summer Reading: Life is Short
I had high hopes for this one, but found it pretty jargon-filled and inaccessible. Thankfully, it was actually quite short.

Photos from Freiburg and Waldkirch, Germany
I have lived in this part of Germany for roughly sixteen months over the last 8 years, and the natural beauty of the place still astonishes me. I went to the Münsterplatz Market on Saturday and enjoyed a lovely evening in the Black Forest Town of Waldkirch that evening. Yesterday, I went to the Freiburg Schlossberg Festival and caught a great snap of the sunset.
