DOWN WITH THE 5 PARAGRAPH ESSAY!
Education
I’ve got an MFA from UC Riverside’s Palm Desert Low Residency MFA which means I can give and recieve feedback with the best of them. I’ve got a slightly stale Master of Divinity from McCormick Theological Seminary from my old life that’s surprisingly useful for writing fiction and teaching. Even before all that I got a BA in English Language Literature From UC Santa Cruz. Yes, I’ve kissed a banana slug. No, I didn’t hallucinate.
Work
I am an adjunct professor teaching creative writing at universities around San Diego including Point Loma Nazarene University and John Paul The Great Catholic University.
Do you have a novel, story or article that needs development or editing? I also take on editing clients.
Do you have a writing workshop or class that needs teaching? I do freelance writing instruction as well.
Editing
01
Get in touch to get started. Fiction. Nonfiction. Short. Long.Your precious little poems. I can punch up your sentences or help you develop ideas and structure. Lock in your low price quick before I figure out what I’m doing!
Writing
02
I couldn’t possibly be happier if you asked me to write something for you and then gave me money afterwards. Or not, honestly.
Teaching
03
You need some lectures about writing and/or literature? I got you. You need a writing workshop deftly helmed right along the edge between creativity and madness? I’ll be your captain.
A novel about whales building spaceships and leaving humans behind to deal with the climate disaster on their own.

Yes, I am querying this novel with agents. Stay tuned.
