Me too...me too....

I've been involved in some form of writing for over 30 years, starting with technical writing in the 70s.  After moving to Alaska in 1983, I worked as a freelance photographer and writer, video producer (even won some awards), operations manager for a computer store in Fairbanks (when a divorce left me with the kids, the bills and the need to get a "real" job), manager of Academic Services for the University of Alaska Fairbanks, lead proposal writer for an Alaskan Native Corporation and webmaster for several not-for-profit organizations.  I got back into technical writing about six years ago and haven't looked back.  Currently, I am working on contracts for a microelectronics system manufacturer and a state chartered energy efficiency organization.  I write both hardware and software documentation and Help.

I was co-author of Frontier Energy: Appropriate Technology in Alaska 1974-1984, co-founder of Mushing magazine, former editor of Fairbanks Arts, founding President of the Alaska Natural Energy Institute and field producer for Why We Dance: The Story of the Midnight Sun Intertribal Powwow.

On my home front, I am happily remarried and living in Vermont.  My wife's son builds houses on the shores of Lake Michigan and her daughter works in New York City.  Both are happily married.  My daughter is a single struggling writer living in Reading, PA and my son is trying to figure out how to get back in the University of Alaska Fairbanks (he blew it the first time when he partied his way out of school .... unfortunately, he is following in his Dad's footsteps...took me ten years to get BA).
