Bio

I am a courageous person by nature. I have simply discovered that, at certain key moments in this life, you find courage in yourself, in order to move forward and live. It is like a muscle and it must be exercised, first a little, and then more and more. I still don't know where I'm going or where I'll end up, but it's the journey not the destination, right? I’ve sold a screenplay, windows, refrigerators full of food, the Yellow Pages and even named a brewery, Rock Bottom. In retrospect, probably, for the stories, alone, with more-than-moderate success, along-the-way to being in a business I didn’t have any intention of entering, but somehow bemused myself with writing a faux-resume to see if they’d get the joke. Fortunately, they did. I’ve been doing whatever it is I tell people at parties I do for a living is I sell what they look at everyday. I’ve effectively become what is a good storyteller, which is what purportedly makes for a good salesperson. I see no difference between weaving a tale, making a sale and living my life. All the really exciting things possible during the course of a lifetime require a little more courage than we currently have. A deep breath and a leap.
