Brown Dwarf is a science 'friction' comedy of the arts. The primary setting is the high desert of central Oregon, with offshoots to Central America, New York City and beyond. The secondary setting is a sloshing of time frames and political urgencies. A next incarnation western novel, Brown Dwarf employs a complex, narrative amalgam to tell the story of Enno Duden, a young reluctant messiah, and his efforts to build a farm. Parallel storylines touch the Duden adventure: environmental espionage, comedy, geothermal intrigue, romance, appropriate weaponry, and art-world chicanery are a few of the elements. Side by side and sometimes overlapping the Duden story, there is a modern sculptor / old cowboy and his intrigue with an art dealer / gun runner, a fully invested ghost, a retired cow cop turned concierge vigilante, a jam-band drummer on the lam, a mercenary scientist, a gum-chewing dog and a couple of brown dwarves. Concurrent regional sovereignty efforts punctuate the economics, politics and environmental concerns. Scientific intrigues around failed stars and exotic energy sources inflate possibilities. Family arguments between the author and narrator serve to clarify and confuse at the same time, while at the core, mysterious cat and mouse escapades revolve around the oft-attempted eradication of Duden.

Ten Acres Enough: A Farm for Free is a story of artful self-sufficiency and homesteading on a very small acreage combining market gardening centered on small fruit cultivation. This book answers the elemental question; how many acres do you need to have a successful farm, and how you might acquire it with little or no money? This book is for those looking to establish and succeed with a small farm, and for those large and mid-sized farmers who feel overwhelmed and under-achieved but nonetheless devoted to a working life in agriculture. This book is also for successful small farmers looking for ideas and for the language to help them make their case in the larger world. Combining the 2023 essay A Farm for Free by Lynn R. Miller and the 1864 classic Ten Acres Enough by Edmund Morris, this book provides perspective and technical information, along with formulas and hopefulness.
Roots in a Lovely Filth. The book's title is a refreshing declaration and appreciation of what must matter, what will feed and free us. The book's story concerns a pair of young unsung hero farmers, Enno and Ahnah Duden, and a secret society that gathers itself around them, to protect these innocents and deflect the dark forces that would bring them down. The hollowing out and erasure of the nation's rural lifestyle and substance since the early 1970s has resulted in several generations of what Lynn Miller sometimes calls "farmer pirates," who must assume a low profile to conduct their farming, and are treated to the skepticism and scorn.There is a bold sense of arrival and purpose to Lynn Miller's new novel, which is a third continuation of his Duden Chronicles, extending beyond The Glass Horse (2008) and Brown Dwarf (2020). In this new book the narrator stands close to the reader, and keeps edging closer, by turns dodges and hectors and whispers, taking it all so personally that despite our silly selves we readers can't help but pause and reflect. But that is not only or even mostly its effect, nor the least of the book's plantings, growings and gleanings. Punctuating his masterful storytelling with a myriad of quotes both real and conjured, as well as visual puzzles and historical context to rest the gaze, the book assembles and reflects a living culture, an alternative and sometimes furtively blessed reality that stands quiet and ready, often poignant with its wry encouragements and tart advice.Readers may find themselves waking to a blessed new way of living, in a possible salvation that springs from farming's own beginnings and versatility, that have served to join man, woman and child, fruit, vegetable and animal, wild and tame into one purpose over ten thousand years on the land. As the narrator explains, reaching ahead into the future: "The Next Testament, they would later call it... For there to be a next testament there first needs to have been no first testament; for the second coming is a reckoning (or wreck-inning) not a beginning. No, this time it needed to be understood as something entirely different, not a reboot. This time it needed to be fresh and pertinent, somehow pertinent." (P. 281) Tilled into a stony, barren desert soil, with an eye to the weather and precious little grounds for hope, this fine book has us tasting matters of substance and nurture all the way, seeing alternatives and choices at every step. After a fitting cataclysm that conjures more than a light dusting of dread at the pandemic and the delusions of blundering co-conspirators, the book returns to embrace the daily round of farming life, singing a chorus consisting of a set of a dozen chores that come to pass all at once. Which satisfies more than page-turners might imagine with its grace and quiet poetry. And though by now the hour is late, there is still time to gather and surmise what with our help may likely be in store. Roots in a Lovely Filth is a tasty and necessary fiction to help unburden us of tired old economic ways and means, with its simple pioneering tools and playful voices asking for shared strength and purpose in the work ahead, lest we find ourselves exhausted and bereft in an overheated future.Paul Hunter, poet
