📚✨ I finally got two of the most thoughtful book recommendations from my brilliant mentor, Sandeep Ravindran — and I couldn’t be more excited!
These are not just books; they’re gateways to deeper insight, sharper storytelling, and a richer understanding of the world.
I’m so ready to absorb, reflect, and grow through every page.
Learning never stops — and with the right guidance, it becomes even more meaningful.
Thank you, Sandeep, for always lighting the way. 🙏💡 @Open_Notebook

A delight to share this conversation with the wonderful @ericajberry about her book Wolfish!
So much wisdom and inspiration in here--may we all report and write with her "omnivorous curiosity."

Thanks to @monkey_cabinet and @Open_Notebook for outlining suggested ways to properly attribute #Indigenous #science and traditional ecological knowledges in #journalism. All disciplines should take note for science #writing. I am also happy to see @josephvlee, Aquinnah Wampanoag writer, featured!
My own small contribution: “Presuming a right to access knowledge” held by Indigenous peoples is not only disrespectful, but it can also open the door to harm - @kstsosie
Including Indigenous sources who are experts in both Western and Indigenous science (sometimes called “two-eyed seeing”) can help synthesize those perspectives in your piece, writes @monkey_cabinet. theopennotebook.com/2024/10/…

I worked on this for months, and I'm so excited to share it with TON readers. Thank you so much to @RachelZamzow @leutlopper for helping me shape this resource—I hope that it can help journalists feel empowered to cover Indigenous science and decolonize our field.

This is an important article for writers who are not indigenous, but working with indigenous practitioners of indigenous science by @monkey_cabinet! If you are a science writer I highly recommend subscribing to @Open_Notebook!

Today's @Sequencermag newsletter is by yours truly, and it's about a major driver of my imposter syndrome as a journalist: I'm a shy person. I'd appreciate it if you gave my earnest confession a read.

I’ve looked to @Open_Notebook as a writer resource for years, so it was a real honor to be read so closely and interviewed by Kate Fishman
.@ericajberry wanted to write a book that was “rigorous in thinking about wolves’ role in the ecosystem,” and to "grab readers who didn’t think they cared about wolves.”
As she tells @katefishreports: “How could you open different doors for people?" theopennotebook.com/2024/10/…

Who is hit hardest by news layoffs? Data is sparse, which is why the #theIIJ, with help from @FieldFoundation, undertook a survey of journos who were laid off or accepted buyouts starting in 2022. The findings reveal shocking disparities. Read more in @CJR cjr.org/business_of_news/rea…

In case you were dying to know how I spend my time, the good people of @Open_Notebook asked me to answer a few questions about my work habits, note-taking techniques, and writing practice. Mostly I'm grateful for the chance to extol flip phones & my dog!
