"She takes the award for best new Alaskan voice of 2025." So deems David James about @rickirobin.bsky.social, whose new book, GHOSTS OF DISTANT TREES, is included in the @adn.com reviewers' favorite books of 2025 list. She and John Messick are signing books today at Title Wave in Anchorage, 3:30-6!

Genuinely so excited to screen Shaped by Land alongside @princessdaazhraii.bsky.social’s Two Old Women on Saturday. This film block is going to be so special! Still so honored to be included. Sold out about a week ago, but I hope to see some of you there!
my short film, Shaped by Land, premiered at Banff last month. we have an upcoming screening an Anchorage along with some other incredible shorts. please join us on December 13 at 3pm! beartooththeatre.filmbot.com/movies/aiff-...

Left: Daily sea ice extent in the Bering Sea each season 1978-79 to 2024-25 with the past two seasons, 2017-18 (the lowest on record) and the smoothed 1991-2020 median highlighted. Right: NWS Alaska region sea ice concentration analysis to February 15, 2025.
Bering Sea #SeaIce extent has fallen 30 percent since the start of February and is now the 2nd lowest for this point in the season in the past 47 years of NSIDC data. The only lower season, 2017-18, showed that this will impact the Bering Sea ecosystem and people's lives/livelihoods. #Arctic #akwx

(i haven’t been using it but haven’t deleted it yet—and yes i googled but i’m seeing some different ways that seem more or less messy)
is there any easy way to archive your tweets before deactivating your X acct?
not sure how to feel about this considering what “winter” has been this year
#alaskasky i am once again looking for pet sitter recs in the anchorage area—let me know if you know someone!
is this my chance to remind everyone who doesn’t like snow that they are my sworn enemy?
hey #alaskasky, if you’re in anchorage, this week is your last chance to see danielle stickman and my work in the APU gallery in grant hall. our show, The Space We Breathe, is an exploration of the transcendent “everything” of the natural world that shapes our lives in the north.
I'm not sure yet if this site has the same community of #freelance writers eager to hear a #callforpitches as the other side, but let's see if we can't find out.
@trailsmag.net is looking for pitches for Issues 10 and 11!
