Paula Whyman is the author of the new memoir Bad Naturalist and the award-winning short story collection You May See a Stranger. Her work has appeared in The Washington Post, The American Scholar, and numerous literary journals. In Bad Naturalist, Paula shares her often humorous and deeply honest journey of ecological restoration on 200 wild acres in the Virginia mountains — a place that challenged her assumptions, tested her patience, and taught her that nature doesn’t always follow a plan. With warmth and wit, she explores what it means to take on a monumental task before you know what you're doing — and why it’s still worth doing anyway.
