I am a ghostwriter, editor, author, and the owner of Primary Sources, a writing resource that helps others communicate their stories, histories and ideas. I offer a menu of writing services that help you become the author of books, how-to pamphlets, memoirs or family histories, e-books, magazine and web articles, training manuals, marketing copy, and more.

I am honored to be invited inside your head, and help what's there to come out onto the pages of a professionally written, compelling book or article that will get you noticed.

I ask good questions.

I listen to the answers. Really listen.

I translate the answers into compelling prose.

I am fascinated by your stories.

Clients who have stories to tell, wisdom to share, ideas to promote. Sharing our stories connects us, teaches us, inspires us, and heals us. I am happy when I can contribute to this process.

I have ghostwritten more than 30 non-fiction books and memoirs, which tell the stories of a wide variety of people and cover a broad range of topics. I've written about subjects from saxophones to finance, city histories to remodeling, psychic horses to constipation, and many points in between. One of the best things about being a ghostwriter is that I am never bored, and always learning.

In addition, I am the author of three works of fiction, two books of poetry, and three non-fiction books, Making History: how to remember, record, interpret and share the events of your life; You Can Be An Author, Even If You're Not A Writer; and my newest book, Dog Park Diary: the Social Round of Goody Beagle. I am currently working on my second novel.
