Welcome to The Far Northeast, where I tell stories about living and writing in the state of Maine. I’m a lapsed technical writer, a published mystery novelist, a sometimes blogger, and a fisher, gardener, and cook. We’ll land on all of those squares before we’re done.
Caveat: This will not be the blueberry, moose, and lobster version of the state, but an attempt to make clear what’s below the iconic images, what it’s like to live here in January as well as July.
All the content at the moment will be free—I have stories to tell and essays to write that may find no other home. At some point, I will serialize a mystery novel, as an experiment in publishing. I’m looking at this experiment as a scratch pad, an archive, and a new way to reach readers. Strap in and hang on . . .
