Hello, and thank you for visiting my site. Here, you can learn a little more about me, what I do and what I can offer. I have been a professional freelance writer for over 15 years, and work exclusively out of my home office, which is in South Bend, Indiana. Although I write about many topics, my work centers around business and technology. I and my wife also spend two to three months a year at our second home in Bangkok, Thailand. While in Bangkok, my work continues as usual, and for most projects, my location is transparent. My time in Asia does lend itself to travel writing opportunities, as well as analysis of the Southeast Asian business and technology communities.
You will find my writing style to be conversational and engaging, and you will also find that I am capable of tackling just about any topic. Please email me if you have any questions, or would like to discuss a project.
Corporate blogs serve the purpose of keeping the company's name in the public in an informal, conversational style. I write blogs professionally for several companies and publications, including:
ITWorld. My daily "In the Channel" blog entries on www.itworld.com cover issues related to the technology reseller channel.
The Email Admin. My blog entries on www.theemailadmin.com cover issues relating to email security and archiving.
Tax Auction Homes. My own blog at www.taxauctionhomes.com covers the subject of investing in real estate tax lien certificates.
Corporate Writing and PR:
In addition to writing books and articles, I work directly with corporate clients to produce public relations and marketing materials such as white papers, press releases, case studies and web content. I worked closely with several high-tech dotcom startups to create messaging and PR materials through JONA Group, a San Francisco-based boutique PR agency. Other areas of specialty include ghost-writing for corporate C-level executives, preparing contributed articles. I also prepare detailed analytical industry reports, and am a contributing analyst for Compass Intelligence, a telecom research organization.
SEO-Optimized Web Content:
I regularly create SEO-optimized Web content for corporate clients and marketing organizations of all sizes. My SEO articles go far beyond being mere containers for keywords; they deliver an informative and entertaining experience for the reader--and they get results. For a sample of an SEO-optimized web site, please visit:
I have helped many small and midsize businesses create effective business plans used for both funding and organizational tasks. A business plan is one of the most important documents a business will ever create, and it must transcend mere technical description. It must get the continued attention of the desired audience, communicate the business model in an effective way, clearly lay out the overall strategies of the business, and convince potential investors to take the next step.
My work, status as an industry observer and large number of successful business books have made me a sought-after interview subject. I have been interviewed by several radio and television personalities, and mentioned as an expert in the press. Mentions include:
Expert Content in Real Estate and Loan Modification
If you're putting together a real estate investment web site, you will need expert content. I can speak from a deep level of understanding. In addition to writing frequently about real estate topics, I also have experience personally as an investor. I have special expertise in foreclosures and short sales, tax lien sales, and loan modification techniques, and can create ebooks, web content, and sales letters that speak with a powerful voice that only an experienced writer and investor can provide. I am the author of "The part-time real estate investor" (five stars on Amazon), as well as "Learning to play the real estate tax auction game", and have also worked closely with several loan modification servicers, real estate investors and lead generation firms to create highly effective, specific content.
