The Word of Damocles

Greetings Substack readers and welcome to The Word of Damocles. 

I’m a retired attorney.  From 2008 – 2021, I was a writer and activist for the equal-parenting non-profit, the National Parents Organization.  I’ve also written for organizations on a wide variety of men’s issues, the reform of the domestic violence laws and practices and reform of district attorneys’ offices.  My op-eds have appeared in a wide variety of MSM publications like The Hill, The Houston Chronicle, The Dallas Morning News and many others.

In 2021, I branched out to write the Word of Damocles that deals with a broader range of topics.  Please feel free to visit my personal blog, The Word of Damocles to see what’s gone before and get a taste of what’s to come on my Substack page of the same name.  There you’ll also find my mission statement and bio.    

I hope you like what you read here and, whether you do or don’t, that you’ll offer your civil and thoughtful comments.  And I especially hope you’ll spread the word about The Word of Damocles.

Thanks for your visit and happy reading!
