I’ve been a freelance journalist since 1995, and have had over 100 articles published in regional and national publications, and on web sites. I've written about a variety of topics in many different categories. I've listed a few below, and have provided a couple of clips for each category.

Books — I write novels and non-fiction books, covering fantasy, nature essays, and the single life.
