Ultimate Guides
I like to "learn with the garage door up". These guides are products of figuring out how to become a better operator and sharing those learnings with others.
Armchair Consulting
Armchair Consulting is an ongoing series of articles where I make marketing suggestions for businesses I love, purely for kicks and giggles.
Fiction
Novels
I have written two moderately successful, somewhat popular (read: not popular enough to be stopped in a Barnes & Noble) thrillers under the pen name D. Melhoff.
Kids' Books
Also under the pen name D. Melhoff, I have written four kids' books as part of an illustrated series for children, as well as a viral Dr. Seuss parody.
Crypto / NFTs
I'm a crypto idiot compared to most blockchain dorks, but I'm smart enough to know it's the future of intellectual property. As a writer, I provide narrative design and world building for NFT projects to maximize their value.
