About

Contract writing for reports, blogs, technical articles, short stories and larger projects.

It may seem rather strange to see someone who has worked in the repair trade for many years be passionate about writing and photography but that's what I am. I've enjoyed writing since Middle School and have done my best to work toward that end ever since. I've had articles published in magazines such as Vintage Truck and Antique Power; I have one mystery-thriller (LOTTERY) published, another one (FAMILY REUNION) at a publisher being evaluated, as well as several more in the works. In the repair trade I've had to write numerous service and after-action reports. I'm serious when I need to be but I also try to keep the reader's attention with a touch of humor and a hint of sarcasm when needed. Representatives from companies such as General Motors and John Deere actually told me that they enjoyed reading my submissions. I keep an active blogspot for many of my short stories and accounts of family adventures. My hobbies range from antique cars, to photography, to graphic design, to reading, collecting Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books, to spending time with my grandchildren.

Work Terms

My hours of operation are flexible but usually are on the evenings and weekends. I will eventually cycle that around to weekdays. I am fully capable of taking my writing projects on the road with me and I can research along the way. My rates are negotiable with large projects requiring a deposit before work begins. I communicate primarily by E-mail and texting.
