The Start of Something Big
This is a book Ana and I have been dreaming of writing for 17 years. It is our love letter to the world.
Bio
What I Do
I have a passion for great writing. Excellence is one of my most cherished core values.
The exquisite beauty of a powerful idea expressed in words, whether through a single sentence or a 700-page novel, is something that has stirred my soul since as long as I can remember.
So . . . What I do: I search out transformational ideas and stories and bring them to life in words.

The Laughing Universe
When you loose the bonds of everyday distraction and slip deep into the ocean of possibility that surrounds us, you magnetize what you visualize. Sometimes the results are flat out hilarious.
Love Song
Every creative act is a love song, whether its result is sixty-two times more massive than the sun or as weightless as a few words of heartfelt encouragement to a friend.
Buried Treasure
Writing, like living, requires these three attributes: the courage to throw down mud onto the page, the honesty to recognize it as mud, and the humility to revise and rework it.
Not a Stranger
When I was fourteen I spent a year being depressed. It turned out to be a precious gift.
