My Writing


I spent thirty years as an illustrator and animator, animating for Blue’s Clues and illustrating for magazines like Highlights High Five and Malt Advocate (of which I am). I have written thousands of essays, articles, and scads of marketing copy. I live with my family in the suburbs of Chicago, where Spring is eternally hoped for. Here are some examples of my writing:

When a Fun Weekend Project Becomes an Existential Nightmare: A Puttylike Comic

CosmicGiant (articles and all site copy)

Hot Diggety Blog! – Well, duh. My blog.

Road Trip with Rabbit and Squash – Fully illustrated children’s book. Adults can read it, too.

Thrilling Your Customers – I published this book geared towards brick & mortar businesses and guess what happened right after? COVID. Talk about your timing, right? Still relevant.

Happy Overload – Spend a rainy afternoon coloring the pages of this funky book!

Macho Juice – I have recently completed an Upper-Middle Grade/YA novel for which I’m currently seeking representation. There’s no link because you’ll have to wait for it to be published. Sorry. But I’m super happy with it.

Pants! – Okay, it’s a card game I created. But I wrote the instructions.
