“If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.” — Henry David Thoreau

This site is part of that foundation.

I am a husband and father, and have been writing professionally since 1999. While I have always prided myself on being creative, I have found that by having the right outlook, being creative and professional can complement each other. This outlook has allowed me to complete assignments in a timely manner without feeling that my imagination is being constrained.

To make a living doing what I love — writing! Particularly, doing so while writing stories about adventure in fantastic times and places.

I have written hundreds of thousands of words for several companies in multiple settings and role-playing systems. Highlights include:

• Lead writer on Explorer’s Society
• Designing and refining powers for the DC Universe Roleplaying Game in Directive on Superpowers
• A short story set in the Warlord universe
• Creating super-villains for Criminal Intent
• Developing a freeform wizardry system for the d20 supplement Magic

Create worlds. Inspire dreamers. Give hope. To encourage wonder in a world that often seems to have so little.
