A speechwriter is in the business of telling stories. My clients want to inspire their listeners through images, ideas and action. Whether they want to sell a product, ask for donations, or increase staff activity, traditional storytelling methods are almost always employed. No matter what event, a stories are being told.
Sometimes, as in my case, I tell actual stories: tall-tales of one kind or another. Mostly, this comes through my writing, but this Friday, I am, helping the Geneva History Center raise money at their Book Fair. See details above. See all my tales on Amazon.
Freebies! I'm giving away three short stories for Kindle. One per day, starting Tuesday, December 11. Each will be available free a few days.Why? I want you to spread the word. If you like a story, forward my email on, or link the story to Facebook, Twitter, etc. Or write a review. There's no obligation, of course. If you are a publisher or agent, contact me.
Tuesday, December 11 How Wind Began: The Story of Pepper Jack His name was Pepper Jack. Or, that what's we called him. OK, no one really did, but we should have. It would have been a cool name for a guy, and a pretty accurate one to boot. A modern tall-tale.

adventures!
