bio

Author Biography
I’m Doug from the inside out, and these books are a part, but just a part, of me. I’m very independent in thought and action, so a conventional appearance is restful, protective, and a little amusing. I like and respect people with very different views from my own. The Rural Social Justice thread in these books is the armature that gives structure to pieces intended to provoke, inspire and feed the reader’s thinking and imagination. Few people will read them; but it only takes one to make all the difference. I’m not passing a torch — I’m just holding the door. July 31, 2020

Author Insight

. . . when the snow-melt is brown

Spreading and spraying liquid manure onto a snow-covered field just before a predicted rain or a thaw is a favorite way for industrial farmers to get rid of it. Run off from the frozen slopes quickly gathers at the lowest point — a stream or a pond, or a neighbor’s yard. If caught, they’ll only get a warning, so this has become a common practice around factory farms.
