Today Is ...

Although I am originally a northerner, I do like chicken and waffles.

As a journalist, I have definitely had a fun, interesting, and challenging series of gigs over the years (September 1982 to April 2017).

My positions include reporter, writer, rewriter, reviewer, proofreader, page designer, photographer, researcher, and many types of editors for newspapers, magazines, newsletters, statistical reports, white papers, news websites, and a wire service. I have also edited three books: a paperback on bankruptcy law; and two paperback biographies on Johnny Cash and on Whitney Houston.

I am (still) in the preliminary stages of compiling a book of 75 of the more than 300 self-penned poems that I have written since 1986 for self-publication as a soft-cover book. (Many of my poems have already been published in national anthologies.)

Also, I am (still) in the process of writing an autobiographical novel loosely based on my four years (1992 to 1996) as a reporter, writer, editor, and researcher for an international weekly magazine on the financial and technical aspects of the chemical industry based in the Financial District of New York City (Manhattan). I am including and elaborating on various aspects of my entire life so far that did NOT happen during those years. I hope to have it self-published.

I don't think that I have ever eaten brandied fruit. However, I have eaten rum fruitcake.

My computer is not functional yet, so I will make an attempt to clean up my cell phone.
