the Ground Felt Far Away

Books to seek beauty.

Books to live fiercely.

I want my writing to sing out about the simple glories of the living. I have written two books thusfar, one intended for adults and one intended for kids (and childlike adults).

Both books were mostly written outside. Both books were mostly written while on various backpacking trips, when the wind shoved my hair around and rivers danced at my feet.

These books are fully alive. I hope they make you and yours feel the same.

FROM THE INTRODUCTION…

“So I hope this book catalyzes your waking up to a more interesting choice. I hope you are holding this book after running from your cubicle. I hope your heart is still beating after hearing a flock of endangered owls flying in formation over your head. I hope you’ve already smeared some cake on this book’s pages, or maybe some period blood, or mud from the first puddle of spring. I hope this book finds your juice spilling over. I hope this book finds you puking sunlight into a carnival toilet. I hope this book shakes a large, muddy part of you awake. — the Ground Felt Far Away
