Help Me Survive
All of my writing and work is dedicated to furthering the long-term survival of life—my definition of what is good. If any of the thoughts I've shared on this website have resonated with you, please consider buying some of my work.
Draining the Swamp
It's time someone changed this town. Our heroine — the beautiful, young, idealist Justine Swensen — is headed to Washington, DC to find a place where she can truly make a difference. She'll work behind the scenes from the bottom of the legislative branch to the top of the executive. She'll exert pressure as an external consultant and non-profit leader. And she'll meet with journalists, think tanks, and lobbyists before finally running for political office herself. Follow her thirty-year career as she meets funny, inspiring, and infuriating bureaucrats. After navigating these Kafkaesque mazes with Justine, you'll learn the moral of her story too.

Short Stories of Strengths
In 2004, positive psychologists Christopher Peterson and Martin Seligman published the book Character Strengths and Virtues which scoured ancient and modern texts of wisdom from around the world and found six core virtues composed of twenty-four character strengths. Seligman and Peterson suggest that practicing these universally good traits leads to increased happiness. So, in order to encourage this, I'm writing a short story about each strength. I hope that by spending some time contemplating each one, you can build more strengths and become a happier person.
This collection contains the short stories for the strengths of creativity, curiosity, judgment, love of learning, and perspective. Together, they comprise the virtue of wisdom.

Evolutionary Philosophy, The Book
I started this website back in 2012 by posting all the elements from my first edition of Evolutionary Philosophy, which I self-published at the same time. These writings represent a broad summary of the philosophical thoughts I had been developing as a hobby for decades, but was then hoping to clarify with my new career. They still make an excellent starting place to understand what it means to have an evolutionary philosophy, so if you would like to read this in paperback or on an eReader you can buy a copy which contains the following sections: Purpose, Evolution 101, Philosophy 101, Tenets, Know Thyself, Survival of the Fittest Philosophers, and My Evolution.
