| Introduction | Before my current incarnation -- and passion -- memoir and fiction writer/ coach/publisher, creator of film/TV/web video projects, I was a Fortune 500 consultant in marketing, communications and strategic planning for companies including CBS, Charles Schwab, Citicorp, Scott Paper, VISA, SEARS, IBM and leading nonprofits such as The Rockefeller Foundation. Since returning to California, where I’d spend half my kidhood, I’ve written, edited, published and contributed to a number of books, journals and newsletters, and been writer/producer/on-camera person for radio and video/film/TV/web. My book, "Pawprints," an Amazon.com best seller, led to a literacy plus kindness to animals program -- Pawprints Literacy Plus™ -- stemming from a Jane Goodall Institute Educators Workshop. I’ve also written “How to Write Your Memoirs...Fun Prompts to Make Writing...and Reading...Your Life Stories a Pleasure," and produce a printed and video version of students’ memoirs, “Stories From The Heart.” I also work individually with authors on writing and performance.
