Magic still exists, and majestic landscapes filled with creatures as wild as any imagination could dream of.

Greetings from the heart off the Northern Rockies, where the last grizzlies roam.

I filmed this mother and her cub in Glacier National Park.

It’s been an incredible trip, and the camping/road time has allowed for a plethora of ideas for the second half of my new novel.

In writing news, my story “Grangy” is now up at AE: The Canadian
Science Fiction Review, with a fantastic illustration by Lisa Grabenstetter. I changed the title from the leaning-pretentious “Of Rotting Logs” to simply “Grangy”, which conveys the story content better. I also had a recent acceptance by another magazine, which I’ll post about later on. In the meantime, I’d rather be enjoying Yellowstone National Park than updating this site.

On the way back to Chicago I hope to spend time in Wind Cave and Badlands National Parks.

I just made my last food buy for the trip, plus a container of stove fuel. The nights have been cold, averaging below freezing, with a few dips into single digits. So awesome.
