Most of my web posts about writing are about writing productivity. Chances are that’s how you found me. It has, oddly, become a sub-specialty of mine, and it’s made this site very popular. Even Merlin Mann, the productivity guru of 43-Folders fame, has cited some of my FSIM work. You can find these posts here.
At the same time I have been working on a book length project (or two) while doing development work and lit study at The NSSR.
How’s it coming? Well, I was accepted in 2010 and 2011 to the New York State Writer’s Institute at Skidmore, in Rick Moody’s section (the masters section). So, not too bad.
In addition,
- I’ve studied over at The New School’s writing program
- I have completed six terms, and am still enrolled in the Writer’s Studio, 2008 Pulitzer Prize winner Philip Schultz’ writing school
- I am a member of the New York Center For Fiction.
Besides that, I have a BA from St. Lawrence University and a graduate degree from Loyola in an unrelated field, and I’ve done a bunch of post graduate work, but that was so long ago.
Here’s a link to older articles about my background.
