S'mores

I’m SO EXCITED to reveal my latest National Geographic story. Coincidentally, this (albeit short) missive is also a milestone — newsletter number 100!

In a couple weeks, I’ll send a bonus post with more about the massive amount of archival research that underpins this narrative.

For now, please enjoy: Cookie and the S’mores. Like the dessert, this story is best shared with friends, whether in the city or at Innisfree. :)
