WRITER &
STORYTELLER of the
THE AMERICAN WEST
I am a writer and storyteller drawn to the people, places and experiences that shape the American West.

Writer • Rangelands • Storyteller
Stories rooted in the land.
Made to travel.
I regularly book appearances at ranching and agricultural themed events and parties. Got an event coming up and need entertainment? Inquire with me about availability. Check my YouTube channel for example of some of my work. Reach out: I'd love to hear from you.


ON THE CALENDAR
Find me out in the world.
Readings, gatherings, conversations and other places our paths might cross. Take a look at what’s coming up.

Stories worth staying connected to.
Four times a year, I’ll send a note from my corner of the West, new writings, book news, upcoming events, and a few interesting things I think are worth sharing.
No crowded inbox. Just thoughtful stories, sent occasionally.
And as a welcome, I’ll send you one of my favorite poems.
