You have reached the website of one
of the most versatile authors in print or electronic media. You may
never have heard of me, but I ghost write for individuals and
publishers around the world, and I have worked as an author,
newspaper reporter, magazine editor and a content provider for the
World Wide Web. I’m also a religious historian with 14 books
on that topic, including Wiley Publishing's famous Comparative
Religion for Dummies.
On this site, you’ll find everything
from novels to love poems, essays, Power Point presentations,
magazine articles and short stories. From fiction to
non-fiction, humor to serious, you’ll discover something worth
reading.
Most of it is free and available to
the public.
A graduate of Kent State University,
I now teach communication classes at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical
University in Daytona Beach. I’ve also taught at Cuyahoga
Community College (Ohio), Yale University, the University of New
Haven (Conn.) and Daytona State College, among other places.
Most of the educational tools and teachers aids were developed for
the classroom. I also taught high school in Florida, so I know
the information works for young students, too. There’s even a
game I created, called Choices, which is designed to help
children learn to make good decisions. It’s free, too.

The Gospel Truth
The Gospel Truth
In
my university classes on the Bible, students are often disturbed
because history and text do not match up very well. I tell them the
Bible’s value lies in its moral and ethical teachings, not in
whether it is historically accurate. This book is dedicated to
everyone who understands and appreciates the difference.
The great disciple, awaiting execution with his archrival Paul,
recounts how he ended up in a Roman cell in historically accurate,
tragic-comic view of life 2,000 years ago.
Note: this book does
not attack Christianity or Jesus, but merely offers a historically
plausible, alternative overview of the events that led to the
founding of Christianity.

in the Classroom
Educators will find a wealth of ideas in this detailed book based on
the working of educational guru Dr. Robert Cornesky. He borrowed a
business system called Continuous Quality Improvement and shifted it
to education, where teachers emphasize accumulating knowledge rather
than focusing on grades. The book proves guideless as well as
supporting charts and evidence to buttress Cornesky’s arguments.
This book has become an industry standard, adopted by such
institutions as Penn State University and Southwest Missouri State
University.

From speed racers to stock car drivers, a little resort community on

racing. Starting in 1903, when two enterprising hotel owners staged
a race to draw clients to the glittering multi-million dollar NASCAR
events of today, Daytona Beach has featured some of the most famous
drivers and events first on the hard-packed beach and now in the
world’s most famous racing venue, Daytona International Speedway.
See how the city and sport grew together in this colorful account
filled with photos rarely seen by the general public. The book
includes a CD for extra excitement.
