To our readers in the Northern hemisphere, I hope your descent into winter is an easy one this year. To our Southern readers, I envy you the growing light!

Rhyd Wildermuth is our newest columnist on A Sense of Place! Describing himself as “an intractable tea-swilling leftist-punk bard,” Rhyd’s work focuses on the role of materialism in disenchanting the earth — as well as on how we might be able to rebuild a sense of meaning and re-ground ourselves in Place.
