Second Printing
The good folks at New Society tell me Small is Possible has gone into its second printing, which is good because I had a chance to fix mistakes emailed to me by readers. And it’s good because they got Joel Salatin’s blurb on the cover.
I confess to being hoplessly behind on this website, but I am delighted that the book has grown legs of its own. I have been writing magazine articles lately–one on sustainable biodiesel for Alternatives Journal (that one was peer reviewed which was interesting and different), one about grassroots communications for BiodieselSMARTER, and one for Wildlife in North Carolina. And I have continued contributing to the News and Observer, where one of my columns caused a minor dust up over food vs fuel organizing.
Most of my writing of late has been devoted to the death of my brother Mark.
Finding my way through a world without Mark has caused this site, and Energy Blog to suffer.
And while I have updated the Random Photos section, I have abandoned my attempt to keep the “Appearances” calendar up to date. These days I am on the “Michael Shuman” track. He once told me he did a public speaking gig once a week for many years. I’m on once or twice a week these days.
A little economic development, some biodiesel, some sustainability in general, and occasional book stuff.
Just enough to keep me stressed and behind…
