Hello – I’ve placed links below to some of the content, in various forms, that I’ve written over the years. First are some essays I wrote during the Peace Corps, preserved as pdfs, as well as a short story and an example of my commissioned work. Below that are some links to blog posts on Mead Library’s website as I was a regular writer for them during my time there.
Perhaps prescient political essay: Barbarians At the Gates
Essay on teaching: Band, Sports, and Language
Fiction: Weaselsong
Non-fiction commissioned blog post (topic chosen by client): Crying in the Chapel: A Funeral Fit for the King
And a sample of blog posts from Mead Library’s weekly blog:
Throwback Thursday: And the Nobel Prize in Literature Goes To…
Why Did I Wait So Long? (featuring G.K. Chesterton!)
The Best Pizza City (It’s Detroit)
Recent Poetry I’ve Loved
The Library Has Baking Pans!
Finally, while poetry may not be the focus of this job, please feel free to browse this website if you’d like to see samples of my poems. I feel that Resurrection, Children of the World Paint Jerusalem, and Winter are ones that I am proud of and also might be of interest. Thank you for your consideration!
