More on the featured readers for February below:
Gregory Rawlins

Gregory Rawlins was born in lush and rainy Port Orchard, Washington, and when he wasn’t building forts or popping wheelies, he was marveling at the beauty of the natural world. Through a love for poetry and theatre, Rawlins began writing and performing his homespun songs in the mid 2000s, and hasn’t looked back– recording 15 full-length albums– including “Pale Marble Movie” and “Ma”– two drastically different albums, released this past December 6th. From folk to hard rock to experimental, nothing seems off the table for exploration. “I see so many parallels between going for a hike and wandering through the studio searching for an untapped wilderness of expression,” says the artist. “Both places replenish me, give me joy, and are (for the most part) good for my health.” Rawlins also teaches Language Arts and Drama at North Powder Charter School.
Robin Pace

Robin Pace is a weaver of many things. Words, water, time, and one day maybe even textiles. She grew up splitting time between the rural high deserts of Nevada during the school year and Wallowa county on her Gram’s farm (also known as “never never land”) in summers. In college she created her own degree, which combined Psychology, Public health, and was centered around American Sign Language. After graduation thanks to the suggestion of a dear friend, Robin began working for Winding Waters River Expeditions. Thirteen years later, she has only grown more captivated by the power of waters and the depths they carve. If you find Robin in the county she might be dancing, sewing boats, or laughing with friends. Otherwise she’s down river, writing by headlamp, sweeping the canyon for story, and popping up a mighty fine kitchen on the banks.
Jon Rombach

Jon Rombach was a columnist in the Chieftain for a while there. His composting toilet essay, “Dealing With It,” was published in Mother Earth News, Utne Reader and Rhetorical Contexts: Readings for Writers. A book project titled, “I Don’t Know How Deep the River Is Right Here: Testimony of a Whitewater Rafting Guide,” has been on slow simmer for years and the title is currently about as long as the whole draft.
