I'm a novelist, sometime playwright and screenwriter, composer of instructional and technical materials, practitioner of academese, avid reader, and defender of the apostrophe.

I'm also an award-winning teacher whose idea of a good time is to spend hours upon hours hashing out ways to improve all kinds of prose. I help people make their writing a better version of what it's trying to be, not my version of what I think I want it to be.

Who have I worked with? Nobody famous, to be honest. Except that one guy. And hey, maybe you!
