New Home, New Book
Welcome to my website. For 25 years, I’ve been a minor poet in a major city, first in the Los Angeles Times, now here.
This is the place where you can catch new columns on Wednesdays and Saturdays, or get info on my hiking and gin clubs. Or just send me a note.
The big news, other than the wedding, is my new book, “Lavender in Your Lemonade.”
In March, I started throwing out daily lifelines about living with a pandemic. Those daily notes, spanning several months, became this book.
Hope you’ll check it out. In any case, welcome aboard!

The cradle is ready, and my first grandchild is a mere 10 weeks away.

Smartacus makes me laugh. He is the punchline of my life – and I am his set-up man.
Wit and Warmth
There are two Great America Myths – 1) Los Angeles 2) the notion that change is good.
College Prep
I was all impulse; my wife was all class. Outwardly, we fit together like a couple of spoons. Internally, she was a cat, I was a coyote.
You Didn’t Know I Had Swag, Did You?
