About Me

I'm passionate about all forms of life writing, especially memoir and journaling. I teach a series of teleclasses on Description, Dialogue, and Wordcraft through the National Association of Memoir Writers (NAMW). My book, The Heart and Craft of Lifestory Writing has helped thousands create a written legacy of their lives. I'm also a total geek when it comes to the digital aspect of writing, thus two blogs.

What kind of tape is best for creating a sculpture?

Duct tape, for sure. Duct tape can shape and hold the world together. It may even replace the need for open heart surgery. If the current health care reform proposals pass, we are going to need enough duct tape to reach to the moon and back!
