About

     I have written A Great Escape: Short Stores for Travelers, Mr. Thoreau Goes to Boston, Rivers of Words, and African Safari for Women.

     I enjoy reading, traveling, and teaching. You might find me trekking through the jungles of Africa, lazing along the shore of a verdant river in Southeast Asia, or teaching English in a newly formed country going through the pangs of expansion.

     I have taught English, creative writing, and Cultural Anthropology at universities in Asia. I began my career writing proposals, product descriptions, and advertisements while a sales and marketing representative of computer products and services and for a major film industry magazine. I also wrote resumes and marketing literature while the branch manager of a writing company. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of California

     You'll enjoy read my blog with inspirational stories and quotes and hints on improving your writing.
