Before joining BBI, I was Editorial Director of MarketingSherpa Inc., a research firm that writes about marketing best practices. I was there for more than two years and helped write and publish Benchmark Guides, Handbooks, Case Studies and more. The company is based in Warren, RI. Before Sherpa, I was Editor in Chief of DM News, a weekly trade magazine covering direct and interactive marketing, for nearly 10 years.I also have profiles at Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. Besides my day job, I’m also written the first novel in a three-part series. The first book is called Ragnarökr: The End of Days, a fantasy set in Salem, Massachusetts. Books 2 and 3 will be completed as soon as I find time and as soon as I find an agent and publisher. At the moment, I’ve printed a few copies of the first book for my own personal satisfaction at Lulu.com.

So, what is Ragnarökr: The End of Days about? Here is what’s written on the back cover:Thirteen people lay murdered, and an ominous message written in blood foretells a darkness that will destroy all life. The victims belonged to a coven of witches, killed by Draya, the evil queen of the witches who is hell-bent on bringing Ragnarökr and the end of the world. Only thirteen-year-old Ben Conant stands in her way. After stumbling upon the Froøleikr, an ancient book of magyck, he and his friends are thrown into a world filled with elves and mysteries, magic and witches mythological gods and prophecies. Can they stop Draya before their world plunges into three years of endless winter?

At the moment, the book is not for sale on Lulu or anywhere else. Want to know how to buy a copy? Email me and we’ll talk.With all that said, this site is going to be a mix of comments from my professional and personal worlds.
