Stories of the inheritance of place.
I’m a Montana‑born writer exploring the stories, histories, and quiet disciplines of the American West. I write daily Cyber‑Zen‑Epicurean aphorisms and have published seven books on Montana and Yellowstone history. I’m seeking an agent for my memoir and working on a novel inspired by my family’s story.

Current Project
I’m seeking an agent for my memoir about growing up on a ranch and coming of age in the turbulent sixties at the University of Montana. I’m also drafting a novel inspired by my family’s history — a work that explores legacy, land, and the long arc of Montana memory.
Thanks for reading. I’m always working on something new, and I appreciate your company along the way.
