Cranking up ideas for sailing articles while at anchor...we can write anywhere.


Setting sail for new adventures...

   As I’ve told my students, and quoting O’Henry, “Stories are everywhere.”  Up for a sail on Lake Texoma aboard my sloop, the Whispering Wave, I ogled an eye catching pirate ship, “The Compass Rose,” a restored wooden ship.
A phone call or two later I spent the afternoon with her owners and gathered photos and stories for a magazine article.

Features that move the reader

   Magazines can take me out of town and around the state.

   Sometimes it’s writing humorous sailing anecdotes for Latitudes & Attitudes;

   Sometimes it’s profiling Texas icons like the Steam Boat Yellowstone, “the boat that saved Texas” for western lore in Wild West;

   Sometimes it may be telling the Fort Worth story to visitors through Fort Worth TX magazine;

   And other times it’s capturing glimpses of Texans and their ways, hideouts and hangouts—life along the back roads and by-ways of Texas cities and towns--for American Cowboy.
