The majority of Brian's freelance writing focuses on travel and the outdoors. He's written features for the top newspapers and magazines in the country, covering destinations from Whistler, BC, to Lake Winnipesaukee, NH, to the Lake Geneva area of Switzerland. Other assignments have sent him on trips to profile personalities like Brian Schweitzer, the governor of Montana. At home in Whitefish, he wrote a series of columns for the Whitefish Pilot, exploring the intricacies of small town mountain life. More recently, his short fiction has begun to appear in regional publications like Big Sky Journal. In the 2007, he founded the Whitefish Review, a semi-annual journal focused on the art and literature of mountain culture, a project that is gaining national attention with submissions from around the globe.
