Resume:

I am an eclectic person who enjoys many different things and all kinds of writing.   I come from a long line of fine writers. I am always trying to make them proud.  

I have written non-fiction and fiction.  I have published one of the first blogs on blogger and have contributed to other blogs.  My work extends to writing about family, children, poverty and politics, pets, architecture and the environment to name a few.  I have been involved in political writing for fifteen years.  

I currently work as a design consultant and content writer.  Many of my articles can be found with my byline on the web.  I have also written for non byline assignments and many more that will not show up in my Helium count.

I adore Helium and have been a member since the site was only 2 years old.  Helium has provided me wonderful opportunities I never thought possible.  I am proud to be associated with Helium and consider it one of my finest credentials.

This is the time for reality checks, not personal checks or inflated paychecks. Elite pay scales, have to scale back in humility and shame. Bubbles must be popped. Sincere budget review is in order for all of us, and that glass of champagne just might come in handy. What true value should be placed upon state college sports, million dollar football and basketball coaches,...
