WRITER
After a long battle with an undiagnosed illness that he still battles daily, Dave set out on a new adventure: writing and teaching. His short story collection, “How to Be Lonely,” was published in 2021 by WSC Press to critical acclaim in his mother’s house. She gave it 5 stars on Amazon (this is true), with her saying, “What? I thought it was excellent.” No word yet on whether she has rescinded her 5-star rating of his 4th-grade picture of Martin Luther King Jr., but fingers crossed she will stick with it.
Dave teaches creative writing at the University of Nebraska at Omaha and Wayne State College. He has guest lectured at MFA programs and residencies as well as writing camps.
Dave has been a songwriter and musician his entire adult life and has done solo work as well as with the band Bazile MIlls. Their work is published on all platforms.
