B) Would you ever consider a post just about your favorite writers of the west (and/or favorite books)? I've been looking up "best novels of the southwest" and turning up Edward Abbey among others, overall it'd just be great to have a list from you of cool stuff to check out.
Sure! I think in general I'm a bit wary of anything that could turn into an attempt at a Big Definitive List and all the problems that go along with that, especially if it's just me doing it. But I'd be happy to throw out a few favorites, and maybe there's a way to involve subscribers in putting together a sort of communal/evolving list similar to what the Colorado Sun did here: https://coloradosun.com/books-about-the-west/
Sounds great! It was actually off that CO Sun list (and a few others, forget where I saw 'em) that I decided to buy The Monkey Wrench Gang and Lonesome Dove (had read LD back in...either middle or high school and thought it pretty good at the time). But yeah I'd just love some ideas like that, West and Southwest.
Really enjoyed this
