Biography

I help you think creatively about your projects Stagnation cripples. Rules without vision deaden personal dreams and company ambitions. Strategy without context obstructs progress. My company, Daybreak Lit, Inc., helps individuals and businesses like you cultivate a creative workspace. Let me help you take your writing and online projects to a new level.

Since 2008 my company has consulted, trained or coached artists, real estate agents, writers, job seekers, business owners, attorneys, marketing directors, and leaders of nonprofit organizations about creatively using media to share their message.

I also try to pursue creative thinking in my own life. I enjoyed a career in newspapers for decades, but my personal writing projects eluded me. I was stuck in a drought. In November 2010, I completed the online version of a fantasy adventure novel inspired by ancient Mesopotamia and the Book of Genesis. The paperback version came out in the summer of 2011. The writing process ended the drought, expanded my worldview and deepened my love of history. Now I see the threads of antiquity everywhere--all because I chose to step out into a new realm of creativity.

Are there areas is your life where your creativity seems to have run dry? Let's talk.
