Late 2009 brought a few assignments from Western Art & Architecture and I’m happy to say the issue is finally in my hands… nothing better than seeing your work laid out on glossy pages. In their Winter/Spring issue, I go behind the scenes with sculptor and world-renowned taxidermist Michael Boyce of Animal Artistry to visit [...]

The latest Tahoe Quarterly is all glossed up and getting out on the streets. In this issue, I cover the latest local avalanche technology (Squaw follows Mt.

I’m super pumped to announce that I’ve finished proofreading a book for UNR’s Center for Basque Studies—the first such task in my editing career to date. The book, Alejandro Aldekoa (1920–96): Master of Pipe and Tabor Dance Music in the Basque Country, written by a Basque ethnomusicologist, covers the life and music of Alejandro Aldekoa, [...]


My latest Moonshine Ink arts column is on newsstands… hooray! This time I tackled a topic close to my heart: crafting. The folks at Truckee’s Brickelltown have launched a series of intro classes for all sorts of skills like sewing, printmaking, jewelry-making, etc. Check out my article online here. And learn more, along with a [...]
