Welcome

I'm Brandon Sneed. This is my blog. It's basically an online notebook where I highlight good writing, storytelling, journalism and other acts of creativity, and explore how such things are made. 

I'm an author and journalist who writes about people, sports, science, nature, and more. I love learning, adventures, life, and stories. I've covered everything from a guy who played Division I basketball while battling cancer ... to golf courses that eat golfers ... to turkey vultures invading a town. You can read all those and more below.

The First Legend: Meadowlark Lemon in SLAM Magazine

 

Wrote up Meadowlark Lemon for SLAM magazine's issue this month. Don't think the story's online yet, but you can get the magazine from newsstands everywhere, and SLAM editor-in-chief Ben Osborne was gracious enough to allow me to post the PDF version of the Meadowlark story here.

Make sure to grab a copy of the mag if you can, though. It's the first time in its history that they don't feature an athlete on the cover. Instead, they have this rather awesome shot of a basketball on fire.

Anyway, enjoy.
