My life takes me on the road frequently, for business and pleasure, spending a good deal of time on airplanes. Most every poem I write starts out in flight. Some of them land safely. Some of them crash.
I have a career as an award winning writer for advertising agencies in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, and Salt Lake City. My poems have appeared in numerous literary journals including The Missing Slate, Poetry Pacific, and Poetry Quarterly. See a list of published poems here.
I was born and raised in Mansfield, Ohio, educated in Catholic schools, and graduated from Ashland University with a BA in Theatre.
Most of the posts here are my poems and posts of other bloggers of interest, but I also post regularly about music, advertising, aging, and other topics that interest me.
Interesting. Pleasure to get acquainted with you, Dan.
By the way, I nominated your blog for the One Lovely Blog Award. If you accept, click the link below for details on what to do next.

I envy your life on airplanes, I do not like to travel but I love airports and airplanes. Though, I’d prefer if I did not crash.
