Today Texas Monthly published the first two episodes of our latest true crime podcast, Bryan Burrough's "Stephenville." It's about an unsolved murder — and how failures by the local justice system helped keep it that way for almost 20 years. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tex…

Strongly recommend you check out andreagrimes' new fiction newsletter! Political scheming, big tech dystopia, and real-time dispatches from a parallel-universe East Texas town that is really about to go through it. Horrifyingly it's also a great way to keep up with actual news.

Can't tell you how pleased I am that this story is finally out into the world. We describe what's happening to Black land owners here as a troubling indictment of our justice system. A number of other adjectives will likely come to mind as you read it. texasmonthly.com/news-politics/…

Architect Doug Michels's best-known work, the roadside attraction that's celebrating its fiftieth anniversary this year, holds the seeds of the project that animated—and cut short—his life: an obsession with dolphins. 🐬texasmonthly.com/being-texan/do…

Growing up, I learned we had a distant relative who’d been a co-creator of the Cadillac Ranch. For its 50th anniversary, I decided to learn more about him—and found out he was even more intensely creative and complicated than I’d imagined. texasmonthly.com/being-texan/do…

The folks at The Flytrap have assembled an amazing team and have such exciting things planned. They're more than halfway to their fundraising goal so it's a great time to show some support and get the project off the ground! kickstarter.com/projects/andre…
