hey all! it’s been awhile since I’ve been on here (and alas using a new name for writing purposes)… but I wanted to share something with you guys.
One of my favorite parts of hiking the AT and from hearing/ reading of others hikes were their trail magic stories. Some of them can be pretty inspiring, crazy, and even funny (I know my journal on here has several funny ones!)
Getting to the point- I recently started a website that is about the importance of nature in our lives as teacher through metaphors, etc. THe site is open to general submission in this area but I have created an area SPECIFICALLY for trail magic stories!
And here’s the fun part (besides laughing and reading the best stories in one spot) I got lucky enough to get access to some really cool gear so I will be having a contest. I’ll announce categories and prizes soon on the site.
But I KNOW there are great writers in here- I’ve lost many hours sifting through the journals here over the years. Wouldn’t it be great to have some of the best in one spot? Plus it will give you a chance to inspire and education people who don’t know about “trail magic”.
come check it out and submit your story! www.ruminature.com
thanks!
