Substacks recommended by Kirsten Jones | Kirsten’s Substack

Recommended by Kirsten Jones

An upbeat, Oregon-ized column by an award-winning, disorganized author. From hiking the PCT to catching on fire while trying to change a stove light. Adventure, outdoors, culture, history, faith, writing, books, Yachats, sports—a little of a lot.

My book coach and friend is such a good writer. Glad he's sharing with us here.
