A lifelong writer, John graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in English from Sonoma State University in northern California and with a Master of Arts in English with an emphasis on writing from the University of Iowa. Subsequently, he taught English for more than thirty years to students ranging from elementary school to English-as-a-second language institutes, to college, again specializing in writing. During that time he wrote steadily, producing essays, screenplays, stage plays, poems, stories, and novels. His work has been published in several venues, including poems, stories, and novels. A methodical worker, John enhances his natural gift for language with careful attention to detail, accuracy, expression, and style. Although his experience has been mostly academic and creative, he has edited technical documentation and reviewed college textbooks. Recently, as a Claims Examiner he wrote government documents and correspondence. Moreover, he knows the English language well, reads a wide variety of material constantly, and writes nearly every day. As an added bonus, he is a skilled graphic artist. Trust him with your project and you be rewarded with complete satisfaction. He can help make your articles, essays, poems, stories, novels, term papers, manuals, and documentation shine.
