Over the years I have written a number of articles for magazines, journals, and reference works.  I have uploaded some of these from my archives. These essays are often early, unpublished versions of published articles.  Check back here from time to time for additional articles.  Some of these essays are more academic than others.  You can often tell by the title or its length.  Still I think you may find some helpful things here.  If not, wait.  I’ll be adding more.
