On the move means more experiences to record and more ideas for writing. My day job is as an instructional designer specializing in technical training and educational programs. Currently, I’m in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. A short while ago I spent a year in San Angelo, Texas. Before that I resided in a few cities in the Dallas/Fort Worth area for a good stretch of time after moving west from Cincinnati, Ohio. While busy creating training at these places, I’ve found a lot of new material with each change in location.
