collage of pictures featuring Tamela Rich and her work as an author, editor, and traveler

Writing, traveling, and reckoning—one dispatch at a time.

A serialized memoir-in-progress, plus craft notes, book reviews, and reflections on how we turn life into story.

I’m Tamela Rich—collaborating editor, author, and nonfiction writer on a cross-country journey through memory, motion, and meaning.

What to expect:

  • Buckskin Rides Again: a true story told in real time—4,820 miles, 11 states, and a long look at what it means to love, let go, and grow up—at any age

  • Thoughtful reviews of memoirs and narrative nonfiction, with takeaways for writers

  • Behind-the-scenes insights into writing from life—what it costs, what it gives—and how to do it with integrity

Most posts come 1–2 times a month. Many include audio narration.
