Thirty-plus years of writing/editing/teaching experience. I have written everything from novels to grant proposals (four novels, plus two ghostwritten, many screenplays one of which may be presently on its way to production); have taught all levels of univeristy creative writing (fiction and screenwriting), composition (including the training of high school English teachers), some Literature; and have edited many published and unpublished books, mostly for small press and academe. I have created curricula, both on-line and in the classroom. I have been in the publishing business. I hold two BAs, one M.F.A in fiction writing and a doctorate in English Studies and writing pedagogy and theory.
