🐝 Well, I’ve gone and done it. I just applied for a grant to get my book Bees, Biofeedback, and the Living Warning System into Chicago libraries. Because apparently, I don’t know when to stop poking at big problems with my pen.
Why libraries? Because walking into a library and stumbling across a book? That’s magic. One copy can reach hundreds of people, and maybe one of them will start connecting the dots between fewer bees in the garden, heavy Midwestern cornfields, sticky humid summers, and what all that does to human health.
I’ve gardened for years and I keep seeing fewer bees. And, I love libraries having used them for decades. It’s not just about honey — it’s about climate, food, and the fact that our nervous systems and theirs aren’t so different when stress piles up. The book digs into all of that, but the point here is simple: I want it sitting on shelves in Chicago, waiting to be picked up for free by whoever needs it.
So yes, I sent out invites to my shiny new project page (I don't blame you if you ignored them). Since the foundation uses that link to evaluate my credentials, I would love a follow (I have 10 now, but anything will be better)! Here is the link: [Bees, Biofeedback, and the Living Warning System | Facebook]. While I wait to see if the Awesome Foundation thinks this is awesome enough, I’d love your support.
And if not, that’s fine too — I’ll just keep buzzing on over here, planting words like seeds and hoping they take root. 🐝📚
