Mostly
I've written for academic journals. I used to write a regular political
column for my local weekly paper and now occasionally write other opinion
columns.
Around
1999 my writing turned more self-consciously personal. I wrote several
essays, often touching on political topics -- the personal does turn
out to be political, after all -- but my general purpose was to reflect
on my own life rather than make political points.
After 9/11
events drew me back to more traditional political
pieces. I'd like to get back to this, though.

Note!
Many
people reach this page via a Web search for "personal
essays" or "political essays." I'm glad for
your visit.
However,
if you're looking for an essay to pass off as one of your
own for a school assignment, I don't think you'll find much
of use. I also don't like someone using my work without
attribution.
If
your need for a homework shortcut stems from dissatisfaction
with your education, check out these education
activism sites.
