1/ Here's a quick introduction: nice to meet you! I'm Matthew Christopher, creator of the Abandoned America website, book series, podcast, and ice cream flavor (sold poorly, discontinued). I photograph abandoned spaces and write about their stories - I'm interested in actual #history, not ghost stories. Here are my links if you're interested in more of my work:
Website: https://www.abandonedamerica.us/
Podcast: https://anchor.fm/abandonedamerica
4/ The Patreon is really what keeps this work going in a lot of senses, so if you're already there, thanks so much. If not, I post high quality, unwatermarked photos, have votes on what I do next, giveaways, ad-free write-ups and podcasts, you name it. Seriously, name it. I'll try to add it if I don't do it already.
The shop: you know, signed books, prints, cups, calendars, postcards, basically cool photo stuff. Gotta sell merch if you want to survive as an artist and aren't rich, I'm afraid.
