RE: The Grok Writer

Actually, my name is John, but pen names are more interesting to a kid from the suburbs of Detroit. I’ve only been back there for less than 20 days after leaving there some 30ish years ago. Maybe I’ll go visit someday?

Since then I’ve:

  • carved a fascinating 30 year career in the trades, owning and operating my own businesses for the bulk of that time
  • jumped out of airplanes roughly 1000 times, 600+ of them with various cameras strapped to my head
  • Shot hundreds of thousands of pictures (still learning…)
  • read several hundred books from philosophy, business and personal development, science fiction, marketing, law, psychology, and lots in-between
  • Only the heartless would deny the cutenessrecently adopted a divinely appointed dog as a gift from the Great Beyond
  • discovered the magic of motorcycle camping

Oh yeah, wordsmithing is chief among the few things beyond my beloved and our dog that provide such enjoyment as we explore the world together. Wasting limited time on the banal makes no sense, hence my desire for quality in all things, particularly in our relationships as we figure out how to work less and play more.

That’s enough of that. Let’s get your postcards figured out and go back outside and play.
