There’s a lot of these -- both professional journals and a variety of magazines. Articles about parenting and stress reduction, business management and communication, exercise, loneliness, knowing when you are in love, and even lice (don’t ask). Along the way Bob has picked up a few national writing awards for Best Consumer Writing from the National Health Information Resource Center (and even a Sandlapper Prize for poetry -- a nice surprise).
Here’s Bob’s more or less a current list of articles, courses, and book chapters:
