“The beavers are calling, and I must go”

From author Ben Goldfarb who won a writing fellowship to work on his eagerly awaited beaver book.

“I’ll be spending the next month working on #Beaverland at a writing residency at Mi Casita, former home of legendary ecologist (and Yale Forestry alumnus) Aldo Leopold. If I can’t finish a book in this setting, there’s no hope for me. The house is thirty miles outside Taos, up a dirt road in the Carson National Forest”

I am pretty sure there are no distractions, internet or cell service there. The spirit of Aldo himself will speak for the steams and their truest guardians. Nothing to cccupy his time but beavers beavers beavers. Here’s wishing him ALL  the best muses, excellent phrasing and a book that all comes together.

“There are some who can live without wild things and some who cannot.”
― Aldo Leopold
