Welcome to my site

Have a story to tell? Let me help.

For more than 30 years, I’ve helped document the people, places, things and events as part of my work as a journalist in communities in Kentucky, North Carolina and Mississippi. Now, as a freelance writer and editor, I’m helping others in telling the stories about their loved ones.

Michael’s descriptive style of writing took everyone on a journey from birth to the end.

Follow this creative journey

I’m currently at work on completing the first draft of my first novel. It’s been quite the process as I’ve learned a great deal not only about the craft of creative writing, but also gained new insight as to who I am as a person.

I encourage you to follow Michael’s Blog to read some of my favorite stories from the past, as well as some of the things I’m currently working on and various thoughts, musings, contemplations and diversions.
