I’m a writer, editor, journalist, poet, community builder, and publisher.
I’ve been writing newsletters and blogging since the late 1990s and have been a columnist, podcaster, and editorial leader for publications including WIRED, VentureBeat, Business 2.0, and InfoWorld.
I’m also a swimmer and a meditation practitioner, and those practices often show up in my writing.
I created tinywords, the world’s largest journal of tiny poems, which is now in its 25th year.
At Tweney Media, I work with companies to communicate leadership by developing their own media: bylines, blogs, research reports, speeches, books, podcasts, videos, and more.
My newsletter is called ROUGH DRAFTS. It’s about writing and rewriting, listening and leadership, communication and connection. Sign up here:
