About

I love to write and have been writing professionally my whole life. During my early career as a philosophy professor I wrote articles for professional philosophers, some of which have been published in academic journals. In my later career as a technical writer and curriculum developer, I wrote training courses for IBM business applications. Now that I am retired I write whatever I want.

My philosophical writings now mostly center around the topic human happiness. How should a person live if they want to be happy? My theory of happiness in a nutshell is that Happiness equals Skillful living. To the extent that a person lives his or her life skillfully they are happy. You can read my discussions of happiness in this blog.

Apart from my philosophical writers I am now exploring other forms of writing including short stories and poetry. You can read some of my short stories and poems in this blog. I’ve written science fiction, crime, and adventure stories.
