Writing
After 30 years of journalism, I still find myself at a keyboard putting thoughts into words. There’s no news here - simply words on life, people, etc.

Videos
Sometimes, it’s just easier to talk it over. After years of reporting the news, I’m excited to shift the conversation and talk about the things I love.

Speaking
I’m often asked to grab a microphone and hop on a stage for everything from emceeing an event to speaking on a topic. Let me know if I can help you.
Welcome!
I believe the people of rural Appalachia are creative, innovative, and resilient. We face significant challenges, and we are at our best when we face them together. This is a space where we’ll talk about it.
This is a place where friends can connect and we can celebrate the good life here in the southern Appalachians.
