Kevin Vandever's Next Draft

I'm writing a collection of personal essays organized around a question I can't stop asking: what does it take to live a good life? The Substack is where I share essays from the collection, notes on the process, and the occasional detour. I'm a child, father, husband, friend, and grandfather in my 60s.
