Collaborative Book Project

I'm a screenwriter, not an engineer. But I believe that the principles of engineering--used to create such wonders as the Eiffel Tower, the ballpoint pen, the Golden Gate Bridge, and television--can be applied to our everyday lives. The goal is to achieve greater happiness in marriage, business, child rearing, or whatever activities engage us.

To explore this idea, I'm writing a book with the working title ENGINEERING YOUR LIFE. Topics include Backward Engineering, Modeling, and Failure Analaysis.

I plan to post sample chapters here as the book takes shape.

If this project interests you, and if you'd like to participate, please let me know. Participation might range from reading preliminary drafts to writing original material for the book.

I look forward to hearing from you.
