Ben’s memoir, Where Cowards Go To Die, is now available everywhere books are sold

I’m an award winning author of the 2022 war memoir, Where Cowards Go to Die, that cuts through the bravado to reveal a brutal portrait of war and the cost of returning to a country that no longer feels like home. If the book doesn’t interest you, my writing on Medium might! 40,000 people read my latest weekly musings on the platform. Oh, and I share free writing advice each month on Substack with a group of talented authors, journalists, and thought leaders.

But maybe you need to contact me about web development, graphic design, a logo, or a speaking engagement? My artwork has been featured in places ranging from two New York Times Best-Selling novels to the Washington Post. I’ve spoken to the Joint Special Operations Command, U.S. Census Bureau, major churches, and schools.

How does all this fit together? Simple. I run a full service company that can help you discover the right words, design, or keynote speech at a reasonable price.

Like most veterans, when I came home from Afghanistan and Iraq, I found it difficult to readjust to civilian life and couldn’t talk about my experiences. These days, I hold multiple certification in crisis response, trauma care, and suicide prevention and understand the struggles military and veterans face and work to bridge the civilian/soldier divide. My upcoming memoir tackles many of these issues, as do my keynote speeches that I deliver to non-profits, universities, and businesses.

I’ve written for entities ranging from Arsenal Strength to MARCH Marketing to major publications online. Sometimes I moonlight as a ghostwriter and work with a talented team of writers who can string together book proposals that major publishers have moved to contract. Need to see some of my work? I’ve amassed 40,000 readers on Medium, where I write weekly. Or you can check out my writing advice on Substack. Either will probably let you know if I’d be a fit for your needs.

I spent thirteen years as a Creative Director and know everything from Adobe to marketing to WordPress web development. My clients include geopolitical experts, churches, non-profits, and big ‘ol corporate businesses. Ask around. They love my speed, communication, and design because I believe every project should be done with excellence.

Each week I drop new articles on Medium, monthly writing advice on Substack, and love to communicate with people via email. Join my tribe of over 40,000 subscriber’s and followers to get personal emails (bi-weekly) and as a thank you, I’ll send you the first chapter of my book!
