I hope you will join me on this journey through Scotland. I teach writing at Morehead State University where I also direct the Morehead Writing Project (Morehead, Kentucky). I grew up in Upstate New York and studied abroad for a semester in London as an undergraduate before earning post-secondary degrees in Connecticut and Texas. I am a lifelong writer and love inspiring and being inspired by other writers. Taking a journey together and writing together about the ideas we encounter along the way is my idea of joy.

If you want to get to know me better then feel free to visit my web sites about writing, teaching, and stories as well as checking out my Twitter feed. I am also on Facebook and if you contact me to let me know you are interested in this class I will happily become your “friend” – I don’t accept random friend invitations but if spend two weeks writing and traveling together we will hardly be strangers!
