Owl right, we'll try
As a long time reader of High Country
News, I have become accustomed to your quality
journalism. Your feature-length investigative pieces are generally
excellent. At the same time, I often find myself growing weary of
all the negative environmental news. Such reports are undeniably
important, yet they begin to wear on the reader after a while.
What we need is more quality pieces like "The Owl and I" in your Aug. 6 issue. Like its author, Melissa Hart, I am a freelance writer and journalism professor. As such, I recognize and appreciate quality writing.
Heart-warming, well-written articles like Professor Hart's provide a bit of balance and some hope in a sometimes-grim world. The more pieces of that nature that you find room to publish, the better High Country News will become.
