“I fear those big words which make us so unhappy…” –James Joyce (Ulysses)

This site is about small words that make a difference, about leadership, about people, about brands, digital marketing, about books, eBooks, and reading. Sometimes it’s about bees.

I’ve worked in publishing for almost 20 years–in the San Francisco Bay Area, London, and most-recently New York. I’ve led Subsidiary Rights, Sales, and Marketing teams for global publishers, and I’ve worked at small presses with a handful of people. This business still surprises me.
