Here & Beyond just published an article I wrote on Waikiki — then and now. I hope to publish several articles on Hawaii this summer and make a small dent in the overwhelming amount of cultural whitewashing that represents the vast majority of media on my state.

My latest column for Life on the Androscoggin explores the history of the old Holman Francis Day residence at Goff & Court in Auburn. It’s a striking and well-preserved example of Queen Anne architecture at the turn of the 20th Century with giant bay windows and a tower!
Holman Day makes a fascinating portrait: newspaperman, poet, novelist, and one of Maine’s first filmmakers. It seems he and I are living our lives in reverse…
