I'm a journalist, author, editor, word coach, environmental designer, community ecologist, arborist and generally likeable sort.

I've written two nonfiction books on how to reclaim public space for the public good (Guerrilla Gardening: A Manualfesto) and help for people hoping to grow more food in cities (Urban Agriculture: Ideas and Designs for the New Food Revolution).

My novel The Miracle Tree is a comedy about a young reporter who starts a media frenzy when he's sent to cover a tree that might make wishes come true. Unless it's actually about a search for authenticity before the word loses its meaning altogether. We live in weird times.

My latest book, The Mustard Seed, is a "hard-boiled Buddhist thriller about love, loss and revolution" set in Sri Lanka in the late 1980s. Mostly "loss."
