The Ramble Ranch is open! There may be very little physical land left for us peasants to inhabit on Earth, but the digital space is limitless and so let us stake our claim right now. Welcome to the ranch!

I am a non-fiction and memoir writer with occasional fiction pieces that are likely based on people and situations I’ve encountered in real life. I have been called:

“authentic before authentic was trendy,”

“the most prolific writer in this MFA program,”

“an anomaly”

and “Marty.” (At Starbucks)

I promise an adventure with each piece I publish.

And I hope you’ll join me!
