I wrote the first draft of my first book in 1990/91 (was rejected by a literary agent).

I was in the technical writing field for almost 40 years, and obtained my diploma in technical writing in 1987.

Completed a 1-year diploma course in freelance journalism (1988) through correspondence.

I started on the web in 1997, running a web site for my technical writing services.

Also in 1997 I started my own corporation, offering technical writing services (and later adding graphic design and print-on-demand services).

In 2004 I self-published my first book (offline), Invest In Yourself.  Although I had experience of publishing manuals (in my technical writing career), this was a tremendous learning experience, and a non-monetary rewarding one.

In the same year I joined SBI!, started a new web site, and self-published my ebook, Get What You Want.

In 2007 I accepted a position with SiteSell, Inc. (based in Canada) as a virtual contractor (contract terminated 2011).

For the years 2007 to 2014 I offered e-cover and book design services.

I've been happily married for over 34 years to an incredible supportive woman. Marinda has been my support and biggest critic over all the years.

Most recently published books are: How to Format Your Book in Word (https://amzn.to/2K9OS42) and the ebook Goal Setting 101: The Value of a Goal Setting System (various online resellers: https://books2read.com/u/mBrv7N).
