Writing is not something I do; writing is something I am. As I told a friend not too long ago, in terrible English, I can’t not write. Wow—a double negative. I write every day, not because I have to, but because I want to.

I’ve been writing since I was ten years old, when I completed my first book, a magnificent 23-page homage to my hero at the time, pulp fiction star Doc Savage. Silly? Absolutely. But it’s where I started, and today I have 99 books on the market with three bestsellers so far, and hopefully more to come. In terms of subject matter, they cover the waterfront: technology, leadership, storytelling, photography, writing, wildlife sound recording, three novels, children’s books, biography … like I said, it’s the craft, not the subject matter. I just love to write.

I’ve also written magazine and journal articles, screenplays, technical documentation (zzzzzzzz …oops, sorry), and audio and video scripts.

Like I said, I can’t not write.
