Hi there! I'm a nationally syndicated columnist with Creators Syndicate, a group that distributes features to over 2200 media outlets worldwide. My column, Lost in Suburbia, has been a hit for over twenty years and was consistently the most downloaded feature when It was distributed by my previous syndicate, Gatehouse Media (now Gannett). I speak at conferences, schools, and events about writing, branding, and humor. Most importantly, I'm the author of three books, including my latest, "Barking at the Moon: A Story of Life, Love, and Kibble." I've appeared on numerous TV shows, including NBC’s Today Show, CBS This Morning, CBS Sunday Morning with Mo Rocca, and Good Day New York. My honors for writing include the prestigious Writer’s Guild of America award, a CLIO, and a New York Emmy.
