Maquette: Oops, I did it again
Submitting pitches to publishers for what will be my third and potentially last book I make for a long while. This time around I sincerely think I mean it.
Wish me luck!

Who is behind the lens matters. Parity equals better journalism. Kudos to @ashadamsphoto who helped make sure we broke 50%.
The connection between my monographs Black Diamonds and Little Cities:
"Together, they thoughtfully describe the complex experience of life in these once prosperous towns."

Curious to hear or know more about the content and narrative of my monograph Little Cities?
Head over to @map6collective this week on Instagram where I’m sharing images and brief notations about the work via my instatakeover.

RJ calls it "a meandering meditation through Southeastern Ohio by depicting the vernacular post-industrial landscape." These American pictures remind me of so many rust belt towns I've passed through in my travels across the Midwest.

More book news: Rich-Joseph @thefacun sends word about his latest project, Little Cities (Little Oak Press, 2022). I haven't seen the book in person, but these pictures definitely convey its vibe.
Deeply grateful to everyone who supported Little Cities by pre-ordering a book. This past weekend was busy with a visit to the @littleoakpress headquarters where I signed copies of my monograph as the LO.p staff packed books. Order your copy today at: bit.ly/3NUdkUc

NEW: For years, the chlorine industry has told Congress and the EPA its workers aren’t exposed to asbestos. Workers at a NY plant told me and @_NeilBedi otherwise.
