Charlie Kondek Writes

Once when my oldest son was little he asked me what I did for a living, and I answered without really thinking, "I write PowerPoint decks and drink in airports."

The truth is, I'm a marketing professional and short story writer from metro Detroit. I've been a PR man, an ad man, a stringer for a weekly newspaper. I am a man of faith, a loving husband, and father to two kids on the autism spectrum, the younger of which has profound needs. For many years, I did more PowerPointing and airport drinking, more parenting and husbanding, than writing, but I've been working to change that, and very grateful for the attention my work has received.

You can see more about that work here. I blog here (sometimes) about writing, reading, marketing, faith, and other topics. 

I have the same name as police officer Charlie Kondek from Tarpon Springs, Florida, who heroically gave his life in the line of duty. Neither of us should be confused with Charles Kondek, the opera librettist.
