My name is Jess and I was a high school Literature teacher for 16 years until I decided to run as a Democrat in a rural, red district in Missouri. I bring you news and politics from Missouri and beyond from a rural progressive point of view.
Sharing small things that catch the light. Where nature meets the handmade. Musings for the curious.
