Writing Samples
I’ve written a wide variety of pieces, in almost any category you can think of. Not all of them are available by link. Here is a sampling of them.
Articles:

LuAnn Daniel, founder of Women Rock, Inc., is an inspiration to many. SpeechCheck.com hired me to tell her story. It can be found here.
News articles, written for the Kendall County Record and Plano Record Newspapers, are limited online. One, briefs from a Plano City Council meeting, can be found here and another, Plano School Board meeting briefs, can be found here.
Web Copy:
Writing about yourself can be a bit intimidating. A candy maker asked me to craft her About page for Facebook in a voice that sounded authentically hers. To see it, go here.

Blog Posts:
Several for Lee Tkachuk.com, included The Cubs Curse, With a Twist, Baseball: A World of Curses and Superstitions, His (Nick)name is Sweetness, His Game is Football, Wayne Gretzky: The Great One is a Physical Genius, “Broadway Joe” Was More Than Just a Pretty Face, and Dick Butkus: Lean and Mean, Still a Legend.
A post that resonated with readers, “Why it’s OK to be Weird, and Hug the Homeless” can be found here.
