I'm so happy to have some of my writing in this upcoming book!
On An Inland Sea: Writing the Great Lakes
edited by Michael Welch
Available for pre-order: $20.00
The thirty-two writers in this collection grapple with the vastness of the lakes and the vastness of the experience living alongside them. Gabriel Bump explores how his relationship with Lake Michigan changed after losing a friend. For another writer, the water provided an opportunity to explore a romance that would have been too complicated on land. Come dive for shipwrecks, harvest manoomin, and visit the disappearing ice caves. Witness the chickadees, smelt, and cattails, but also zebra mussels, factory runoff, and algae. Each writer's relationship with the lake is personal and unique, but that relationship to the water is also one shared by so many of us.
