I've written numerous plays, including Constant State of Panic, Pieces of Whitey, Blinders, and Reading the Mind of God, which have been staged in theatres across the country. My first novel, Tornado Siren, was published by Behler Publications in 2006. Many of hundreds of students use my plays every year on stage and in competition. My plays are published by Playscripts, Brooklyn Publishers, Heuer, Smith & Kraus (I have stuff in a bunch of "Best of" anthologies), Original Works Publishers, and Volcano Quarterly. My radio plays have been broadcast on NPR and elsewhere.

I have a habit of starting things: I helped start Boston's Rhombus Playwrights writers' group, the Chameleon Stage theatre company in Denver, the Bare Bones Theatre company in New York, the publication Market InSight... for Playwrights, and the on-line Playwrights' Submission Binge. I'm also a member of the Dramatists Guild and a board member of StageSource.

Both Blinders and Reading the Mind of God were nominated for Best New Play by the Denver Drama Critics Circle. My writing has won a bunch of awards, including the Colorado Arts Innovation Award, a Playwriting Fellowship from the Colorado Council on the Arts, the Festival of Emerging American Theatre, the New American Theatre Festival, the In10 UMBC Competition, and the Market House Theatre One-Act Play Award.
