I'm gonna shine out

in the wild kindness

Hello everyone.

Here’s some “insider information” for you.

The cover photo for this new book of mine is from the iconic “Mayor of Photography” Becky DiGiglio aka one of the best people on the planet.

Text over the top is by the Black Moon Design, also one of Earth’s finest. (I’ll do a newsletter about him too when I’m off the road.)

Look at these COLORS…

Becky also did my cover photo from After Tonight, Everything Will Be Different, as beloved by trillions if not more.

I love Becky and her photography and am so happy to be doing another book with her.

Important note: All of these photos (except After Tonight) are reposted from Becky’s Instagram post which happened, I don’t know, like Friday or Saturday. (Find her there at yourethenight.)

Funny part is Becky used a David Berman song without knowing the book itself begins with a quote from Berman’s “The Wild Kindness.” Magic is in the air.

Preorder this book at the link here if you haven’t already.

It’s everything I want to say at this time and in “these times.” Which is to say… a lot.

Hello from the Monterey Bay. Steinbeck Country.

I’m out here in the strawberry fields by the sea. (Which is good but what isn’t is I’ve a terrible internet connection. So who knows when you’ll actually see this.)

Tomorrow, Grass Valley, CA. I think. Maybe Nevada City. Maybe who knows.
