Bookseller

Since 2019, I have owned and operated Destination: Books an ABA (American Booksellers Association) popup book seller in the Atlanta area, which sells new and used books. I specialize in books about gardening, sustainability, history, travel, and books about books.

Publishing

Through my own publishing entity, I oversaw the entire publishing process for Down & Outbound: A Mass Transit Satire including a 60 second video book trailer.  More recently, I finished A Father’s Letters which was professionally edited, designed and distributed through Bookshop, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Alibris and Ingram. 

In the Atlanta area, A Father’s Letters is available at The Journeyman in downtown Decatur.

2008, I have written a monthly column blog about books and book culture. It began as a companion blog for The Book Shopper: A Life in Review and has included cameo appearances from other authors, filmmakers, and book artists. This blog has been archived.
