Welcome to my website.

For openers, you should know I’ve worked as a nurseryman, a dredger, a newspaper reporter, a ghostwriter, an editor, an associate-publisher, a media consultant, never as a waiter in the food-service industry, and lately as a college instructor and record producer.

Mostly, though, I’ve worked as a freelance writer for such publications as TV Guide, Men’s Health, Los Angeles Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, Men’s Edge, Advertising Age, and Men’s Fitness. I’ve also authored or co-authored several nonfiction books for major publishing companies, including Warner Books, Rodale Press, and Barron’s; several children’s books in non-fiction library market; and one self-published novella. My last book, Built for Sex (Rodale Press), came out in December 2006. My next book with NFL legend Tiki Barber (Gotham Books) comes out end of Summer 2008.

Feel free to browse through any of these pages. If I may be so bold, you might want to consider reading some of the newspaper and magazine article I’ve written, or scrutinize the Links section for a list of resources for freelance writers. You can also take a look at the extensive marketing work I’ve done for corporate clients during my 20-plus years as a media consultant.

I recently returned from leading a group of 25 college students on a Study Abroad to Austria, Germany, and Italy. Extraordinary experience. This 25-day class (ENGLS/JRNL 117AD) focused on the writing and marketing of in-depth nonfiction feature articles. If you’re interested in attending next year’s Study Abroad, click here.

Lastly, I just finished producing a benefit CD for the homeless titled Shelter Me. Click here to learn more about this project, or to watch a documentary about the making of Shelter Me.

Thanks for visiting. I look forward to hearing from you.
