Happy November! Happy Veterans Day! Happy Thanksgiving!! If I take a look at the people who are in my life—and that includes all of you—then this is the moment when I can express great gratitude.

This month we feature a flowering tale by Barbara Lloyd McMichael: Scott the Gardener brings joy to all of those who pass through his neighborhood in a suburb south of Seattle.


OCTOBER 2023: Wild Trees and Animal Crossings

As the leaves flare in brilliant hues of orange, gold and russet, and the days grow shorter, we have a few environmental items available for your reading pleasure. One of my favorite places on earth is Oswald State Park. Writing about the Short Sand Trail is a gift to myself and hopefully a gift to you too. Happy October!!


August 2023 Magazine

This month we explore the reality of climate change as depicted in the work of evolutionary biologist Dr. Peter A. Corning. Over the course of the next few months, PR for People will publish each chapter of Dr. Corning's latest work Superorganism: Toward a New Social Contract for Our Endangered Species. This month we have news from Nebraska. Read about Priscilla Teley Foley, who designs couture apparel with distinctly African flair.  Also, Willa Cather’s My Antonia, the third book in her Great Plains Trilogy, is a breathtaking story about life on the Nebraska prairie in the 19th Century.
