Arndt, who was at work on his own long novel, was also a great connecter who bound other writers warmly together: "a provider, a nurturer, a guardian angel."
Dick's email handle always make me chuckle: "baldbasq."
Landing at #10 on the inaugural Independent Press Bestseller list is Robin Kimmerer’s Gathering Moss: A Natural and Cultural History of Mosses. @osupress.bsky.social finds itself in good company with titles from @yalepress.bsky.social & @princetonupress.bsky.social also making the list.
It’s so good. Hoping Kestrel has another book in the works.
"Telling stories while staring into a live and leaping fire is a rich and holy and lovely—and social—act that we should do more often than we do... Think of it as a way to say hey to Joe Strummer."
One of my favorite books of 2025: A Portland story about gentrification and a community that, despite being displaced, continues to gather at their neighborhood park. "I’m thankful to have met the stars of this real-life episode of King School Park, I smiled a lot. Gives me hope."
This season of Hush is riveting. I was listening to episode 7 on Sunday and thinking to myself: these two journalists are so damn good at what they do and how cool that it’s found a home at @opb.org. Wow, what a loss.

It's nice to see early praise for "Richard Neuberger: Oregon Politics and the Making of a US Senator" on social.
@nickkristof.bsky.social wrote on X: "Bravo to Stephen Forrester on his powerful new biography of Neuberger, a luminous portrait of a pioneering journalist, commentator and senator."🌲❤️
