Get plugged in!

You have just one chance, mere seconds,

to make a great first impression.

Whether you're publishing a newsletter or brochure, honing a paper or book,
pitching a product, need copy for your Web site or are looking for a job,
you need the sharpest, most-relevant path to your reader, client or customer.

I am an experienced newspaper journalist, and I write and edit business publications,
website copy, papers, proposals, cover letters, dissertations and theses. I excel on tight deadlines.

I also design and write newsletters, brochures and pamphlets.

I can even preserve your family memories in writing.

I collaborate with you to design nonprofit and small business
webssites to your specifications, at a reasonable cost.
Then I teach you to manage your own site, to keep your costs down.

When the AnnArbor News closed in 2009 after 174 years of publication, I wrote my Reflections on an era.
I hope you find it interesting, amusing and just a little bit surprising.

Please check my resume, clippings and current pages for examples of my work.

Achieve your goals

I wrote for a daily newspaper on virtually every topic,

and did it accurately and on tight deadlines.

I can surprise, engage and amuse any audience, and do it quickly.

I can do it for you,

with personalized attention and service.

Look as good as you are.

Pulitzer-nominated journalist

I wrote on tight deadlines on government, medical, legal,
feature, nonprofit and investigative articles.

I do whatever it takes to do my job – jumping out of a plane,

fighting a fire, on high-speed police chases,

even making an undercover crack buy with police.

I have the experience you need.

Identify and communicate with your market

Zero in on your target audience, and write or design for that market, so you can get your job done.

Need a small business or nonprofit website? Need a logo?
Need better website copy?
Need newsletters written or edited?

Look no further.
