I am searching for freelance writing and/or editor opportunities abroad to expand my experiences and abilities. I have published articles in newspapers and magazines on topics from travel to music to art, as well as editing books for review and countless web efforts.

In 1993 I began publishing Degeneration Excerpt, a newsletter from my micro-press company Degenerate Press. The Excerpt is a bimonthly newsletter with articles on topics from travel to politics to dating services to explosives, as well as photographs, short stories (both fiction and non-fiction), and original artwork. I also edit other writers' submissions for this publication. I produce Degeneration Excerpt using Quark Xpress, Adobe Photoshop, and Microsoft Word. As the popularity of the web grew, I moved most of the publishing efforts online. In 1994 I started Electric Degeneration, a semi-weekly ezine featuring articles on local music, travel, politics and other eclectic topics. In addition to my own articles, I edit subscriber’s submissions. Despite a lack of advertising, readership has grown to a few hundred subscribers on word-of-mouth alone. My web site receives around 30,000 visitors per month. I have supported my writing efforts through a career in the web development business as an Information Architect. If you are interested in that aspect of my work check out my résumé at http://www.degeneratepress.com/jobs
