About Me

I’m John. I’m a technology executive by day and a writer by night. I mostly write fiction under the pen name Jack Arbor. I also scribble here occasionally. My current focus is climbing down the corporate ladder and traveling every chance I get. When I’m not writing, I’m skinning up Tiehack or hanging out with Jill.

You can read more about me on my website, linked here.

Eventually, I’m going to quit my job, so I’m on a discovery tour to decide what to do next. Whatever it is, it won’t involve using Teams.

My writing here is about that discovery process. Topics include finding purpose, solo-preneur, retire-preneur, entrepreneurship, retirement lifestyle, personal finance for retirement, and of course, writing.
