Storm Beat by Lori Tobias
Journalist Lori Tobias arrived on the Oregon Coast in 2000, having lived and worked in places as varied as Philadelphia and Anchorage. Tobias's story is as much her own as it is the coast's; she takes the reader through familiar beats of life, the decline of journalism, and the unexpected experiences of a working reporter.
There are a lot of stories in this book; Lori Tobias spent thirty years finding themThe two big stories, though, are Lori and the Oregon Coast. She writes like an athlete, full-on strength and savvy, eyes on the prize every time. She’s part of the last generation of journalists who spent more time on foot than on the computer; she smelled story and went for it, as independent as a cowboy or a long-distance runner. The other story is the coast of Oregon, of course, where storms come and murderers hide and ships sink—and where good things happen along one of the most beautiful stretches of coast in the country. Mostly, for decades, you wouldn’t have known, if not for Lori Tobias." —Sandra Scofield author of Mysteries of Love & Grief, The Last Draft, and Occasions of Sin
