Wyatt and Janie Jones are Arkansas natives, whose love of their home state inspired them to write Hiking Arkansas, also published by Globe Pequot Press. Wyatt pursues his interest in music, art, and natural history, while Janie enjoys writing true crime articles, most recently for AY Magazine. When not exploring their native state’s wonders and mysteries, they live in Conway with their inscrutable border terrier mix, Barney, and their very vocal snowshoe cat, Lily.
