About this service
Summary
As a full-time writer, novelist, and former journalist, I have mastered the complex principles of storytelling. I understand the techniques that work and the ones that won't. I offer story consulting services to individuals and organizations looking to create compelling narratives, whether novels, nonfiction books and articles, memoirs, or screenplays.
Contact me if you want to learn more about how I can consult with you about the key elements that make a story strong and one that builds a deep connection with your audience.
My background:
My love for adventure and profoundly curious nature inspired me to pursue a profession in journalism. Fifteen years as an award-winning reporter, columnist, and Washington correspondent opened the door to a valuable discovery: Storytelling is the most powerful way to introduce new ideas into the world. Steve Jobs once said the most powerful people in the world are storytellers.
If you want more powerful stories that connect with your audience, I'm the writer you need to see. Whether it's web content, blogs, news, books, or screenplays, I've written in every discipline.

Chris is a gifted writer. I had the pleasure of working with him on a number of client projects over a two year period. Chris’ biggest strength was his ability to take complex information, turn it into a coherent strategy, and create narratives and other content that met the client needs. He is a dependable advisor and a conscientious teammate. I’d highly recommend Chris if you need someone who can see through complexity and write something that will move the needle for you.

Chris is able to combine research and concepts and turn it into captivating stories that move his audience. He has extended story telling expertise and has been a story consultant for other writers. He is extremely creative, articulate, and conscientious in his writing. The word I heard most often from our clients was, "WOW!"
