These few word begin to describe me, a social activist seeking to right the world's wrongs in some small way before I pass from this world.  In the fall of 2001, I chose to devote a fair percentage of my energies to a writing career.  Since then, I've found a satisfying niche writing about issues concerning the natural environment and sustainable agriculture, though I dare venture beyond these limits when I feel the need.

You can peruse some of the resulting articles here.  If you're clever, you might even locate a web-based resume there as well.

I'm currently writing a history of the majestic American chestnut, a fabled species currently balanced on the brink of extinction.  Though many folks labor to rescue the valued species, I have my doubts about their potential success.  Already having written two chapters of the work, I seek an agent and a publisher.  If you feel you might help find either, please let me know.
