Publications
Most of my writing is behind the scenes as a speechwriter or unusual projects. However, there are a few things of mine out there.
A Few Publications
Beyond these projects, I’ve have had articles in the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times, and many smaller publications. My speeches have been quoted in the name of my clients in the London Times, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, Fox News and more.

Every Day with Jesus
Every Day with Jesus: Treasures from the Greatest Christian Writers of All Time: Devotions for Every Day of the Year
I wrote a dozen entries. From the publisher, “At the heart of this year-round collection of devotionals are penetrating thoughts on intimate themes such as grace, obedience, change, priorities and God’s promises from Christianity’s most beloved writers and thinkers. Their timeless words—in concert with a daily meditation, Scripture and a short prayer—will draw your heart and mind toward heaven for a few minutes each day, offering words to help you take your own concerns and praises to the Lover of your soul.”

Color
I see color everywhere. This infuses whatever I write.
When I look out my backdoor, I see the colors of nature.
When I browse a bookstore or library, I bathe in the kaleidoscope of ideas.
When I have conversations at my favorite cafes (there are many), I dance in the colors of personality.

A Writer at Home
