I’m a relative latecomer to Hemingway studies. My entry into the field came by way of journalism, beginning in 1998, when I spotted the 100th anniversary of Hemingway’s birth coming down the pike. Over the next half a year or more, I dove in completely. Read and reread the works, the Selected Letters, criticism, etc; attended centennial conferences in Oak Park and Boston; interviewed some writers for a Hemingway Review article on Hemingway’s influence (my debut in THR, 1999); and began researching Hemingway’s Kansas City period, discovering new material and compiling all that I could. That last effort led to the publication of Hemingway at Eighteen in 2017. (See the webpage devoted to my book elsewhere on this site.) Over the years I contributed more articles to The Hemingway Review and the Hemingway Society Newsletter and wrote a handful of pieces for the Kansas City Star that seem to hold up, including some reporting from Cuba and elsewhere on the Hemingway trail. I’ve recently become something like the assistant bibliographer for THR, helping Kelli Larson to compile the twice-a-year roundups of scholarly essays and books. Earlier this year I deposited the physical files related to Hemingway at Eighteen in the LaBudde Special Collections at the University of Missouri-Kansas City Nichols Library. In recent years, I’ve tiptoed back into my digital research files from time to time and have realized that there is much material that might be useful to me and others if only it could find daylight. Well, here we go. I plan to post random notes, as well as archived stories. I’m not sure there’ll be a logical thread running through it all. More like a miscellany that can be dipped into whenever a reader finds something of interest.
