I write for a living. There are articles for magazines and websites, books (two so far, and another in the works), and plenty of ads, brochures and direct mail pieces.. My best efforts have often come after hours. On this Website I have posted some of my more entertaining articles and essays, written in those rarefied moments when inspiration struck and time allowed. Many have never been published. But now, at last, they have a home.
