Reading List
I've spent a great deal of time digesting a lot of nature writing while thinking about this project, and because ideas don't exist in bubbles, I'm sharing that reading list with you. I've also taken the liberty of creating an easy to access shopping list for you through my favorite independent bookstore. It would mean a great deal to me if you would support them with your own literary journey.
