I’m a nonfiction writer. I write about travel, food and drink, nightlife, subcultures, and consumer trends. Sometimes I write about myself. I’m currently working on a long, long historical story about a woman-led cult in the Utah desert. Keywords include: divine typewriter, media manipulation, mummy, spiritualism, antisemitism. Want to learn more or, better yet, publish the story? Email me.
