Partial List of articles

I wrote my first magazine article for the Mustang Club of America’s newsletter, Mustang Times, in 1985. Since then, I’ve produced several hundred features for dozens of publications. Some of those articles are on this website.

I wish I had maintained a database of those articles. It would be fun to occasionally read them again, but I never suspected this passion of mine would ever become more than a hobby, so I did not file them neatly away. Twice in my life, I compiled lists of my articles as I wrote them. The projects went well for awhile, but – as you can see – my enthusiasm for cataloging ran out.

For whomever might find this of interest, I am printing those lists here.
