Writing has been my strongest talent and ongoing interest since childhood, when I wrote a short-story detective series called Tommy Gunn. My first publication was in Highlights Magazine at the age of 10 or so, and I have since published articles in The Orion, Synthesis Magazine, Chico News & Review, Metro.Pop, California Bands, Cinema Blend, and my own blogs and websites.
For the most current examples of my prose slinging style, see my music blog Monitor Down, its associated ebook the Rock and Roll Bathroom Reader, or the Los Angeles website I co-created with my wife, TryOurLA.
Here are a few other examples…
5 Fun Date Ideas for Creative Angelenos (TryOurLA) A post designed to provide a few Los Angeles date ideas other than the cookie cutter dinner-and-a-movie, utilizing some of the LA resources mentioned on the site. This is probably the most-read post on TryOurLA.
Meet the Primrose League (Monitor Down) My interview with Daniel Earwicker, an accomplished amateur musician who produces music from his bedroom in London, drawing a sizeable following almost exclusively from YouTube.
Every Song is About Heroin (Monitor Down) A capricious and explorative blog post from Monitor Down, and one of my favorites.
SynSpace (Synthesis Magazine) Part of a series of I produced for Synthesis Magazine a while back, in which I reviewed bands directly on MySpace. I was subsequently approached by several interested bands. (JPG image)
