I dislike describing myself. Tell you what -- I'll get it started, and anyone who knows me or meets me can leave a line of description about me using the "Testimonials" feature, or e-mail it to me. I'll add them all, positive or negative. I might even learn something (imagine!).

I'm a writer and editor, former newspaper reporter, union communications exec, currently freelance, ghostwriting books and doing editing as Wordsmith Editorial Services. I enjoy learning foreign languages and cultures. Interested in many subjects, scientfic and social.

I have three sons who make me very proud -- Matt, Jaeson, and 'Mookie' [known better as Drew, since I wrote this profile a few years ago. - SFW, 15 Apr 2009], born 1976, 1982, and 1989.
