Welcome

Welcome to House Calls, my new blog.

This is my venue for writing about my firmly held beliefs on the topic of good writing. I've been writing professionally--that is, getting paid for the things I write--for nearly 30 years. I've picked up some thoughts along the way on how writing should be done, if the goal is to do it well.

But this is also my venue for writing about politics, sports, food, and anything else I care about. I'm a husband, father, cancer survivor, pet owner, and lover of modern communications. So you just don't know what you'll find here.

Thanks for reading, and please come back.
