Black Men’s Studies: Black Manhood and Masculinities in the U.S. Context (Black Studies and Critical Thinking)
I was Dr. McDougal's editor, providing primarily copy editing services but also some developmental feedback as well. Black Men's Studies offers an approach to understanding the lives and the self determination of men of African descent in the U.S. context. It not only frames their experiences, it also explores the multidimensional approaches to advancing the lives of Black men. Particular attention is given to placing Black men in their own unique historical, cultural, and socio-political contexts.

Moog MF-104M Analog Delay User Manual
Moog Music hired me to write the manual for the MF-104M analog delay effect pedal. I took home a sample unit and learned how it worked, interviewed the engineer who designed the electronics, developed sample sound patches, and wrote the manual in a friendly tutorial style.
Moog Animoog Manual
At the same time Moog hired me to write the user manual for a new effect pedal, they also were developing an iPad app called Animoog. This app provided a way for users to understand the basics of analog synthesis and was/is a useful tool for music production. Using several beta versions as a guide, I learned the app, wrote the instructions and descriptions, and created most of the graphics.
