About WThomasPayne
Bio
Freelance writer, photographer, and general handyman with words, I roam the back roads of America looking for the slightly different, the bizarre, and the fun that can be found in those 'off the highway' locales.
Over the last 25 years, I have been a landlord (Certified Property Manager), a property developer, project manager, lab scientist, intellectual property negotiator, marketing director, corporate spy, and all around curmudgeon.
I have written everything from effective ad copy, marketing collateral, legal notices, short fiction, speeches and radio scripts, to detailed reports from analyzing complex data sets. My mind is open to new ideas and concepts.

Quote of the Day
- Let us consider that we are all partially insane. It will explain us to each other; it will unriddle many riddles; it will make clear and simple many things which are involved in haunting and harassing difficulties and obscurities now.
- One of the most valuable things we can do to heal one another is listen to each other's stories.
